Im looking for someone with a MK2 ZS180 who would like to PX with my 1998 Honda Accord 2.2vtec. It has a massive spec, fully forged with turbo conversion etc etc...
1 of a kind, 300+bhp..

Obviously will need some cash my way..
Would consider a mk1 180 but would neet a lot of cash on top.

I think you'll be hard pushed to find any one with a mk2 to swap. Not that I'm dissing your car but i wouldn't part with an 04 plate for a car 6 years older.:unsure:
Maybe its just me.

The value of a car like this is not dictated by its age like a standard car would be. Infact its totally irrelevant as most of the parts have been replaced. Obviously you dont know alot about modified cars, in which case this advert wasnt aimed at you ;)
Cheers anyway.

I don't really think so either to be honest, although your car is highly modded and had a lot of cash spent on it i am the same i wouldn't go for it either but thats my feelings on it but maybe someone else will see it differently,good luck with it anyway.

yer exactly. Thats what alot of people are like, but alot arent. Some people will want to swap there standard day to day car for something abit wilder etc etc. maybe because theyve just got a new job and dont have to use the car for work etc..

He never modified his mk1 he was going to but ended up keeping it as is

Why was it silly? i'm sure i'm not the only one with the opinion and i am entitled to it so if you dont like it then don't post.

It was the 45 that was Mk2 ZS replica & the red one was getting the same but i prefer that as a Mk1.

Should imagine 100% on here have modded cars, even if like mine which has only a couple of fluffy dice hangin from the rear view mirror, seems an odd way to sell a car though.

You only seem to have owned this for a few months. I would make the assumption there are some issues with it and hence you want rid especially by the choice of cars you would p/x for. I might be wrong but that's what it looks like to me! It's not running cost either as you would consider a RX8 and they cost as much in oil as they do in petrol.

you say you have only had the car a few months, so is this not you offering it for sale in march this year, its deffinitely your car. Is it all running correctly now after the engine fire?

Oh dear, not a very good history to the car...the words DOG and LEMON spring to mind.

LOL!

No that was the previous owner who had the engine fire due to a leaky oil feed.
And yes it was completely sorted and rebuilt.

NO this is not a 'Lemon' yampiedog, feel free to come and inspect (if you think you know what your looking for) and do i really need to remind people this is MY wanted thread, so if your not interested then please gtfo.

Also Yampie, its more to do with the modifying bug rather than immediate running costs etc... I want something that i wont be tempted to modify.

I use this car most of the week and there is nothing wrong with it, and runs VERY well.

Thanks.

Ok so coming onto an mg site and slagging of it's long term members isn't the best way to make friends. Everyone here is here because they have and like mgs so why would anyone here swap one for a Honda? If the car is as good as you say then why does noone on the Honda site want it for cash and you can buy a 180. Maybe it's that everyone on the Honda site knows it's history and wouldn't touch it. Don't come here thinking you are the only person in the world that knows about cars cause you are in the wrong place. Making friends is the way ahead not telling people to gtfo your thread

Rant over peeps!

very true and i bet the mods were chuffed too lol

It also annoys me how people rank the ZS as a runaround car thinking they can swop theyre cars which are worth peanuts and still expect an mg driver to shed out extra cash its ridiculous

i was at football this morning minding my own business and i happened to look over towards the car and 4 off the away sides lads were looking over it

i got into it to go home and the same 4 lads came over and goes "bloody nice car mate id have never known it was an MG unless id seen the badge"

Just a Crying shame Management over at longbridge drove the company to its demise

Welcome to the site and you are quite right, I know nothing about cars, hence I'm on an enthusiasts forum! <<< For the less educated that's sarcasm...
Good luck with the sale :deadhorse:
