Does leaving a voicemail count as telling him the result?

?795, not a bad looking car for the money.

I reckon so - Yep

Well ?795 was our winning bid. Just need to sort out collection etc but I'll leave that to him lol

:mbounce:

Thats Great news Kat, Blair will be well chuffed and that looks a cracker of a car for the money.

Great result, nice looking car.

Looks like a pretty tidy example and a looks like a bargain at ?795

Well appears my 'surprise' thread is well and truly blown lol!

Ross would appreciate in the next few days, if you could give it a test to see if runs smooth and belts are def changed

ay np mate, you still got my mobi number, just give me a tinkle whenever

Veery well done mate

Ok so am home and pleased as punch that I will have a ZS 180 on my drive by next week :D

Many plans running in my head and livery is one of them lol....can anyone say BTCC replica?

Congrats of the buy, you will have to spell Kat right on your bonnet this time!!!!

:smile2::smile2::smile2:

Hot wheels for the win lol

Lol, will need site stickers too!

Am still waiting to hear back from the guy to arrange pick up.

What a bargin! Good to see the community spirit on here! :thumbsup:

Well it's been arranged, I'm collecting the car on Friday morning. Should be a fun drive home!

Nice one Smokey, welcome back.

turns out this car is about 30 seconds from my house lol

Hope you get a chance to check it out for me tomorrow! Wanna know the tread depths on the tyres and condition of pads/discs. Also that there is no plenum rattle/vis issues lol. Oh and what exhausts (2 are with it) one standard and is the aftermarket one the wee one in the pic!?

Your other half ok with me crashing at yours?

Oh and just in case anyone wants to see which car I bought I have attached some pics....

Looks rather nice and tidy that does, nice buy:)

On reading Stephen's post about his specific requirements in his search for a 180, it reminded me of my list of requirements I put up a couple of months ago compared to what I got...

MK1 ZS 180 Saloon tick
Colour preferably black or yellow but open to all black
Belts must be done 4,500 miles ago!
Mileage up to 75k 10k over but belts recent
Standard ok, decent exhaust/induction better (no cone in bay!) no induction, standard exhaust but decat (will address exhaust soon)
Tyres/brakes decent to race til December minimum (3-4 track days) tick (Avon's all round)
MOT/tax minimum 6 months MOT November/Tax January (A compromise I guess for the cost)
Distance no problem Bloody miles away
No VIS/Plenum/Manifold issues!!! maybe vis but no plenum rattle
Average bodywork condition (no big dents/rust [dings ok]) really good, scuff on sideskirt but perfect alloys
No rips on interior, wear and tear ok tick
?1,000 to spend roughly ?795 plus recovery but should plan better!

All in all pretty close match all in all!

ye done well there bud well done!

I see that on ebay and I was tempted to get it myself but the distance was the issue.

very nice mate, missed htis thread all together, decalling it up or leaving it sleek and shiney as is?

Btcc replica all the way.

that sounds good, cant wait for the xpower green stripes on it

Xpower stripes, MG logos also emailed a couple of local businesses for free vinyls which will be seen locally. Also need to get site stickers for here!

Gonna look great mate :thumbsup:

Nice one mate. If you need a hand with the conversion, I'd be happy to help. I'm a graphic designer and used to fit vinyls to vehicles at a studio. I'm in Dundee, so not too far from you.:wave:
