Congratulations Mr Nobrainer Welcome to V6 ownership :D even if it's not the proper one with the mussive spoiler ;)

But it's got the sheddist kit so it's lived on one of the well know forums at sometime.

That looks tidy and pretty much standard apart from the clutch upgrade.

Cheers. I'm slightly nervous as I haven't seen the car and maybe I should check the insurance costs?
I did want one with the big spoiler but it can always be changed at a later date if I want

If this is any help. When I changed from the BRM to the 180 it went up less then £100 per year.

The big spoiler was only on the Saloon when it left the factory but I think it can be made to fit a hatchback.

Insurance £240 fully comp. There are some benefits to getting a bit long in the tooth :-)

******. Didn't realize that. Done a little research, looks like a pain in the arse to do and although I haven't seen any pictures people say it looks pants. Oh well

That's a bloody good deal! Mine is double that, but I do have a modified policy and my max NCB is on the Land Rover.

I'm off to get it tomorrow. That is just a quote. I need to check the details with the company tomorrow as I already have insurance with them. But its with Aviva and that doesn't include £50 from 'Topcashback'

Just to make sure you don't do it, this is how bad it looks.

It works better on a MGTF then it does on a ZS Hatchback :laugh:

There is an extreme spoiler for the hatch that looks good.

accord spoiler bolts straight on IIRC and its something different. Tbh most people dont even notice that I have the saloon spoiler on the hatch and I dont think it looks odd at all. Although I have to look at it everyday!

Does it? I never saw the eBay link Alan for some reason my phone wouldn't display the pics I just assumed because of the discussion it was missing the spoiler.

Matty, I like the look of that, I didn't think it would look that good :)

Nobrainer (forgive me not knowing your name ;)), where abouts in Southampton are you? Keep an eye out for a mk2 Ignition Blue saloon, I'll give you a flash hahaha!! ;)

So I'm a bit confused now. Does the car I just bought have the hatchback version of the extreme spoiler? Who'd have guessed there were so many spoilers?

Matty that spoiler looks good and your white wheels look nice too

I'm in Totton and the west of southampton. If I see you flashing I hope you'll be in your car not standing at the side of the road with your trousers round your ankles :-)

Yes, it does.

Now that really depends on what day of the week it is ;)

I'm in Shirley, so I'm only down the road, I'll keep an eye out. And welcome to ZS ownership :)
