Road trip.

[big_wasa]

I am just leaving to get the train to fetch my new zed :smart: I dont think ive ever been more than one stop on a train and that was 20 years ago :wavecry:


Hope its good one, pictures latter...........:whistle:

[peterzs]

Bit scary, specially with only a couple of minutes to change trains, find the right platform etc..

Good luck and have fun on the drive home.

:beer2::beer2::beer2:

[Nobrainer]

Ooh. Hope you make it. Its so easy these days to get completely lost ending up in who knows where, or even to be sucked under the train never to be seen again, or even to be mugged and enslaved by the gangs of Mad Max like villians roaming the platforms of quiet unmanned stations =-O

[Nobrainer]

Or you might just get massively overcharged :-)

[peterzs]

You do live an exciting life, Nobrainer, I'll have to book a trip with you, on your next train adventure.

Almost as good as a leisurely drive through country lanes to Goodwood!!!!!


:clap::clap::clap:

[petet16]

Nobrainer has a vivid imagination:smile2:


I detect more Yellowness entering Big Wasas life

[peterzs]

[big_wasa]

So it was yo u that got the car... Well done, I called them and spoke and was about to rip their arm off at the price but he said i was just beaten to it.
Looks like you got a lovely car there, look forward to seeing more pics.

Only slightly envious lol :thumbsup:

[petet16]

Looks a cracking car, I'm thinking it must be known on one of the MG forums because it appears to have had the sagging rear bumper sorted, and it looks to be lowered a bit.

[peterzs]

Well done, looks good!!!

[big_wasa]

I dont think its lowered but it is on cheapo 205/40/17 rubber, should be 45's.

Plus points

Its an 05 on an 05 my other is an 05 on a 54
In good overall condition out side and in.
Two keys and two working fobs, my other only has one.
Blue alcantara with matching rear head rests
Alloys are tidy and plenty of tread on the tyres.
Back box is janspeed maybe mid aswell ?
Mani doesnt rattle.

Bits to do.
Rear bumper has been painted and all the clips are missing.
Has a cheapo air filter on the Throttle body.
Window wipers are crap
Tyres are budget.
Air con doesnt work
Viz motors arnt doing a lot, no 3.5k kick
doesnt have some of the options the other has.
needs a FULL service.

Its a good base to get upto scratch and love :rofl:

I am not a gambling man but I did on this. I paid a non refundable deposite to a backstreet car dealer on a car sight unseen to make sure it was mine.

:happy2:

I can sell you a cheaper one in a few weeks with some peeling laqour ?

[andys1981]

nice one mate,looks a nice example,loving the blue seats aswell!

[grimmy]

Nice but shame about the colour.

[big_wasa]

What, you mean they make them in other colours :p

[dean0]

Looks very nice :thumbsup:

are you not going to show it off on Sunday at MGSD???

[big_wasa]

No I wont have it on the road that soon

[daytona365]

Well it looks like on this gamble it's hopefully paid off for you. Hope it is as good as it looks.
The list of to do bits isn't too bad I suppose especially when as you say bought blind technically.
Keep me informed in regards to when you put yours up for sale but I have been in talkings with a friend about his Mirage 180 that he's looking to sell.
See what happens.

You'll have this one all sorted soon enough and probably won't look back mate, looks like a brilliant base car. :)

[MG ZS STE]

Deffo worth the money and the trip even with the niggles. For some reason I'd got sunspot in my head when I looked at it on eBay? Still a nice looking ZS and that colour suits a Mk2 really well, seconded only to whites IMO.

[stamford]

Jeez another yellow one! :laugh:

Nice to have two!

[Dan1971]

Double brightness - ouch .....

[big_wasa]

Double brightness - ouch .....

The plate on your old 180 is only 4 letters away from mine (KGK):smile1:

[big_wasa]

All three are 180's

[peterzs]

[MG 53 ZED]

What a good buy, she's looking good, loving the colour.;)

Really liking the black straights on your current 180, dont usually suit with the bodykit but they do look good.
Let me know more details when you do put it up for sale if you can bud. :smile1:

[big_wasa]

Will do, its a good solid car. Just needs some paint and the belts doing but so does the newer one.
