These are the good points of the car, but there is a small list of bad points, which must be pointed out, with all MGZS Facelift models the body protection from the factory wasn’t very good, so therefore the external paintwork has suffered from the inevitable, which is paint chipping, the problem areas are:
· Front O/S/F and N/S/F inner wheel arch at the bottom towards the side skirt
· Rear door spats
The car has also been on a few Rolling Road days and has made the grand total of 201bhp at the flywheel.

W.....T.....F!!!!!!!????????
You surprise me Kev but I guess it comes to all of us in the end.
I won't try and make you change your mind as you obviously have made it up long before now. Pretty sure that zed will get snapped up in no time.
So what have you got your eye on, a new Focus ST?

Yeah Mick, I fancy a change, have been looking for the last year, and kept putting it off, I have the hankering for a turbo charged vehicle as I have never had one, have a Focus ST or a Astra or Vectra VXR in mind....so here goes into something different and interesting............
Noooooooooooooooooo.such a shame to see this go its one of the best out there.
Thanks Buddy

I can see your thinking there. I wanted a VXR Vectra estate but the sensible head said no! 280 bhp V6, yum, but plumped for the sensible CDTi, not had it mapped............... yet ;)
The Astra's are nice, is the Insignia too much? They look impressive in white and 4wd 2.8T.
I did ask Kathy for an early birthday present but she can't stretch to that :sad:
Got a focus st 2008 for sale if interested performance blue only got 27k on clock with service history 3 door i am second owner i have had it 3 and half years :thumbsup:

thing is you can have a car with many more bhp's and still get the same or better mpg too.
Shame to see it for sale, but it happens. Just a shame there is not much you can do with them.

Sorry to say but your list to me is YUK YUK....The ST will break down every 5 minutes, and the Vauxhalls ok if you are a salesman. Sorry but all 3 I have lost round the country lanes in the Zed..........
Time for everything i suppose, for anyone intrested in this i can honestly say its one of the best out there, its been well looked after with no expense spared. Lots of nice extras.
If it was me st would be my choice kev, good cars, good unit

Indeed Ross, the grass is greener on the other side. If I had the budget I would buy another car such as the VXR Insignia, not every car can be compared to a ZS. It needs to be a combination of things and an enjoyment. No doubt if I didn't have a 70 mile a day commute my car choice would have been alot different from the Vectra, but it ticked all the boxes for towing, dogs and cheap on fuel. Saying that I would have kept the ZS regardless just to mess with as not worth selling.

Great car - all the best selling it mate.
Buy anything you like - just don't leave the site .....

Totally Agree, Ross, unless you spend a shed load on them.

Dont get me wrong the ZS chassis is very capable, and probably one of the best front wheel drive cars out there, but lots of other cars have good chassis too, and I have been locked in on the ZS for a long time.

Thanks Ritchy, yeah the Volvo unit has been around for years, so I dont expect much to go wrong with those engines.
sometimes its not always about that.
Seconded!

Mick, If I had the money the Insignia VXR would be on the drive in a heartbeat, and tuned to at least 350bhp!, but they are so damned expensive at the mo, I wish I could keep the ZS as I love the car, but space money dictate!!
Had my st 3 and half years never missed a beat must have a midweek built one lol
We dont get many issues with them, just the RS. Depends how they are looked after i think
Great car - all the best selling it mate.

Cheers Dan, I wont leave, just probs not be on as much.

Can only repeat what others have said, seen the car many times & always thought it was a Belter & well cared for, GLWS & also hope you can keep intouch through forum or future meets at Knochill etc
As I said Marcus, I won't be leaving, just because I have another make of car!!
Good luck with the sale - if it was not for the fact that I already have two cars, am about to move house due to splitting up with the ex i would be sorely sorely tempted by this....
Always fancied a MK2, and what better way to pair it up with the derv and have two on the drive..... esp as it is the best colour as well :)
*MUST RESIST* got my deposit money sat in my bank account currently urging me to be foolish :laugh:

P.

You've got some great touches on the interior mate - I'd be flaunting them. But just don't make them look too good or I'll be on the plane ...

Good to hear it's staying on here and going to a good home :D
You lot better stop with that spoiler rubbish, I'll make it one condition of the sale that the spoiler MUST stay :o

Ha ha you know I am just Joking.while I am not overly keen on the smaller spoiler it would just be wrong to change it.just very glad the twin is going to a good home where it will continue to be one of the best zeds on the site.
Lol, spoiler going nowhere. Hopefully my mate will buy mine, before the drink started he said he would love it, just to sell his golf. Fingers crossed :D
