Thought I'd post this link as a know there's a few on here on the lookout.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2004-MG-ZS-SILVER-180BHP-/321043177718?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item4abfaa20f6

It has only 103,000 mile on it :) is it just me that thinks that's pretty high mileage?

There's also this blue one just gone back up.

Although it looks a little rough and has about 130k on the clock.

The blue one is poorly and I suspect worse than the seller sugests.
And it's done nearly 140k.

The silver one has had a hardish hit on the rear bumper.

Both are the wrong colour.

The Blue one is cheap, but the write up puts me off, and offering a second car as donor puts me off even more lol

This is going to be a strong view and I hope it does not upset anyone! But for me personally I would never buy a car with over 100,000 miles let a alone a MGR with that kind of miles. Depends what you want from the car I guess. But I have always found buying a car with lowish miles/low owners helps when you sell it on and prove pretty damn reliable! I would wait for better examples. Good luck with your search!

Totaly agree, would never buy a car with that kind of mileage. Im freaking out cause my MK2 180 just hit 70,000. Ive never had that kind off mileage on a car before. The day i collected it it only had 3500 miles on it, was the demo car at Castle bank Street MG before it got knocked down.

Sit tight, you always find what your looking for when your not looking for it.

All our cars are getting on now, just have to look at Jags and Mercs about the same age.

lot of motor for the money and would hate to guess what the first owner paid.

Think our cars are worth what we are willing to pay and keep paying to maintain them. Get a good one to start with and keep on modding!!!!

Worth every penny. Ide gladly pay that for it. And i looks better as a hatch. Because the hatch is slightly shorter it makes the overall car look fatter, and more aggressive stunning :bow::bow::bow:

haha, mileage is just a number. Mines on 130k and has never run better! Like the Mallard, not too tight and not too loose, just right. Then again, it does have an L series in it :D

Very fresh when you bought it then and probably still is if you have kept it all of its life. Funny you said that last comment actually lol (I will reveal later!)

Ive never been put off by mileage,as long as its got a good history and not to many owners,but each to there own.I bought my wife a saab 93 convertible with 165k on it about 7 years ago,fsh,and so on,i sold 3years later as she never used the roof etc..I see the bloke i sold it to every once in a while,and its over 225k now!No major work done to it at all.

My 2001 ZS has just clocked over 118k and sailed through its MOT, modern cars happly do the miles, I'm having a punt on the silver one.
