I have a ZS120 Hatch in Trophy Blue.

I think its a 52 plate but will confirm, I will also confirm the current Mileage

It currently has no MOT or Tax, this is because all four tyres are below legal limit. Other than that its all good :) - I'll even give it a good clean inside and out for the buyer!

Basically I am open to offers on the car, I would like to free up the space so I can make my next purchase of either a 67 stang Fastback :D (well thats the ideal next purchase) or a VFR 750...

I won't let it go for silly money, however PM me an offer and I'll answer you :)

Pictures to follow. Any questions about it just ask!

Well i got 280 miles to a tank outta the 180 and that was driving like a granny

surely 2 less cylinders and 600 less cc must mean a bit more to the tank its costin me a quater of me wages every week gettin theyre and back

Look at the official figures, you will be surprised.

I have had 550 miles out of my 120 and that was a mixture of urban and motorway driving.

I regularly get 380 - 400 miles to the tank, just above the red mark, out of my 120 with normal driving. If I drive like a real Granny I've seen 450 and that is trips involving M3, A34, M40, and no more than 65MPH to achieve that.

A scangauge 2 is a good thing to have if you want to stop flooring the throttle. I switch the MPG off during track days when I regularly see 9 - 11 MPG. :blink:

You only get 280 miles to a tank Adam? and driving like grandad! Something is wrong there, I commute 70 miles a day and can average 320 miles with a mixture of driving on the A3, A325 and onto the A331, some fast roads mainly the A3 where it is not that sedate ;) I would have to be gunning it all the time to get 280 miles. I'm no lightweight either :whistle:

As said the 120 will surprise a few, it is very good on the jungle juice in comparison.................shut up Pete, your'e not included! :p

my old rover 416 16v k series i used to get about 340 from a tank. not a huge difference.

Yer although I must admit 70% of that was spent at 90+ on my private road :)

Appologies for not getting pics up quickly... I've had major problems at home... First next door decided to have a bonfire in their back garden causing the fir trees and his hedge to set alight and then spread to an oak tree... three fire engines later and its out... luckily no damage to houses!

Then my 4ft fish tank with over 200 litres of water decides it no longer wants to hold its water and dumps the entire contents over my front room! Luckily I managed to save the fish but lost the carpet and a few bits of furniture...

If that were mine the flat screen, surround sound, DVD player, Wii and laptop would have been swamped as well ;)

A drastic way to clean carpets Sam!

This car is still for sale....

Basically I need a fast sale as am about to move to a house with a smaller drive, so as it is (No MOT or Tax as needs four new tyres) I'm looking for £1000 ono

Go on make me an offer you never know I might accept ;)

I suggest towing or trailering the car away as, although it runs (drove it to the end of the drive and back to clean up the drive) it doesn' have MOT so would be illegal to drive away!
