ah ur from the zr site! i was talking to ya! probably slightly more reliable than the zr

l11ke 11-02-10 09:26 PM

yeah thats me! just trying to gather as much info together as i can

well window regulators can become sticky, you want to get a plus model if you can, obv look for head gasket faults, look at the bodykit for any damage as theyre hard to get replacement bits now, heater resistors in the one and 2 position inop, easy fix, rear brake calipers can sieze, alarm sounder can get water in it on the mk2 so worth taking to bits and resealing it, heat shield on the exhaust can come loose at the bottom lol, ehmmm, look for rear bumper sag on the mk2, again cheap fix, but wa to batter the price down

l11ke 11-02-10 09:35 PM

nice, really like the looks of the mk2, dont see many about

Deffo the 180... Has least problems. Although you may end up with a few if you haven't a job to fuel & tax (£215/yr) it. :)

Ritchy 11-02-10 09:55 PM

the 180 has the vis problem, and the rattly plenums, the leaking thermostat and the expensive belts change,

l11ke 11-02-10 09:58 PM

the 180 is £215 a year tax is it?

aye, but watch as those registered after a certain date in 2006 get hit with a higher tax cost, over £400 iirc!!!
