[ZS Phil]

[Southside_ZS]

The Mk2 had flag badges by the rear doors? that might be why he did it. Mine has anyway.

[Phate]

That looks absolutely fantastic. Congratulations dude, take care of it :)

looks very nice! been thinking of upgrading to a 180 from a 120, but need some convincing first, think im going to have to test drive one!

[MikeMant]

The Tax is only £40 dearer than the 120 m8 and so far its doing about the same as my 120 fuel wise

[RudeDogg1]

how do you work that out aint tax for a 2.5 like 400 quid? 120 is only 170 :s

[TjP]

Its £210 for 12 months tax on the 180...

yes the mk2's all have flag badges in that location.

the rovers just have the flag whilst the mg's have the chequered flag!

i would prefer an actual mg badge there though similar to the small rover badges on the early mk1 cars.

whats all the talk about 400 odd quid then?

[afcbadam]

they scrapped the idea. its £210 atm but it goes up next year i think to around the 300 mark. correct me if im wrong

[RudeDogg1]

still abit steep for my liking lol

[KevG]

The government postponed the increase until 2010 when all the tax bands change and the ZS180 will be in Band L which is £410 per year or summit like that!

Nope its changed again now it'll only effect post 2006 cars. so anything pre 2006 will stay with normal inflation.

[afcbadam]

they will eventually make their minds up. just goes to show how crap the goverment is. it takes them years to set anything in concrete.

[Alan.F]

Well for once it looks like they have listened to the public because how it was wasn't fair for the people who bought big cars before this was announced

agreed....this was one reason why i got a 120 instead of a 180.

tax was looking like going up....petrol was going up and i couldn't find the right car.

that said i like the 120 as it's a good compromise.....especially as i do a lot of miles!

[john180]

cracking looking motor! u'l be happy with it ;)
