Thought had found one that suited, did an mot history check which showed that two years ago failed it's mot badly due to underfloor corrosion on floor pan and chassis mounts :ohmy::wall:
Being sold as an immaculately kept example with low miles. Can't argue with that but the way it's been phrased on its history leaves me a little doubtful about the overall condition and what may be trying to be hidden. Was a nice looking pre project drive 5dr hatch.. |

I will keep yours in mind though as does look a straight example. Where are you based? |

For what it's worth Craig having owned both, the only practical advantage I saw in the hatch was the ability to fold the seats and carry longer bits to the tip. The Mk2 boot is massive - seriously. I've found the saloon to be a better drive to be honest with better sound insulation over the hatch.
Your call ofcourse but if you're keeping the hatch 45 you have - any transporting of long bits and bobs could be done in that and save the ZS. There's a guy selling a saloon via Gumtree who has pics of his on a camping trip - so there's an example of a guy using the saloon to it's full potential. https://www.gumtree.com/p/mg/for-sal...180/1200796681 |

If I had managed to get hold of my mates dads one which was very rare bringing Nocturne Blue I would've jumped at that one as a saloon. Gutted it went tbh. Mk1, iirc 2 owners and was absolutely stunning. Think just found your old saloon mk2 (red monacos) online did mot history and that too has suffered badly on chassis / floor pan corrosion. Such a shame as looks lovely up top still. |

Other mods on it but as I say did the check on the ref and said it had failed on corrosion on chassis / floor pan just can't remember if it said serious on that one or if that was another. |
Why is it you show a genuine interest in people's cars and they don't seem eager to get back to you with relevant information about anything.
Every thing looks so promising and then it's the people that let you down. Used to enjoy car hunting but of recent it's become a far less enjoyable experience. Only got until the 5th to get a 180 before I need to cancel my insurance and lose a chunk of money. Ruddy cars :wall: |
How many miles per year you expecting to do in the 180?
