[dazzasmgzs]

[Ritchy]

probably in the region of £1500ish to £2000 :)

id say 1500 to 1750

[Bobdope2002]

I agree........ mine ain't worth much more unfortunately even with the LPG conversion....

[andys1981]

i wouldent sell it mate,what are you looking at?

[dazzasmgzs]

ive spent an easy £1800 on it so i wouldnt sell it for that anyway id rather run it in to the ground. i was debating a evo 7 but not sure if i can be arsed with the aggro. im shocked by the response tho thought i would have got a lot more for it tho.

[andys1981]

they dont sell well tbh mate,but seriously if you can afford an evo then why not mate,i sold my last 180,went to a zr,fecking big mistake lol,never again mate,zs is better built etc,really do miss it

[dazzasmgzs]

funny you should say that because i sold a zr for this zs and really regret it. had a 160 and loved it needed a four door for me lad tho.

[andys1981]

well i went from a 180 to a 105 lol,so you can see where im coming from,just prefer the bigger car,handling,presence etc

[dazzasmgzs]

i know what your saying but you cant beat the old pocket rocket..

Looks like a really nice car mate, shouldnt have much trouble selling it but only if you take the figures people have been saying. Just have a look on ebay at what similar cars are selling for in auction listings, its a crying shame our cars are so worthless but I guess if you want an evo 7 you had better get used to losing money. The amount you will lose on the ZS will be a drop in the ocean compared to running an evo!

How long have you had it? You must have known the market conditions when you first started looking to buy? If MGR was still trading then prices would be very different.

[sneekyparrot]

You would get more for a diesel but the market for a petrol mg has hit skid row :-(

Buy the evo for a weekend bit of fun and run mg in the week.

We all know the cars are worth double what they go for, best thing, I reckon is to run them for a few more years and the price will be higher, or not much difference than they are now.

Just depends if you want a change and are prepared to take a hit!!!

[dazzasmgzs]

ye i know they dont hold there value well iv only ever really had mgs but i though the £££s spent would have made a slight difference.

[stamford]

I am one of those who has spent alot on the car and knows it is worthless today. Hell I bought mine over 7 years ago for £7k, so I know how you feel but accept the brutal truth of its current market value, hence why I am keeping it.

[Nobrainer]

Without the bits I reckon you'd get similar money.

[vanishing days]

modifications dont add value to a car

[sneekyparrot]

ye i know they dont hold there value well iv only ever really had mgs but i though the £££s spent would have made a slight difference.

Nope, I paid 3k for my charged motor that was in a poor state and 2yrs later Havin parted with at least 2.5k I have sold it for £3k!!

But it's not just mg's I was offered a McRae scooby with 320hp for 4k

Sold my 02 406 hdi with 150,000 miles on it for £1500!

People's want £30 tax and 60mpg

Spending Money on cars IMHO other than on service items is a waste of time and Effort

[stamford]

Mods to cars only do one of two things, make it more attractive to sell or make it stick, there is nothing there to justify the price tag, only what the seller wishes to recoup.
