It was a mk1 now it's a mk2

Mark S 17-03-14 09:09 PM

looks a nice car and ready to go racing.

Someone could have this and race the full season in the MGCC, even enough time for an ARDS test too.

I think there's half a dozen ZS's racing this season, all it needs is someone to put their money where there mouth is...

(less rear drag with a mk1 rear bumper, nice touch)

peterzs 18-03-14 08:48 AM

Looks a well specd car, for not much money.

Good luck with the sale.

Make a great, Southern Track Car!!

:-D:-D:-D

andys1981 18-03-14 09:17 AM

Good for you .... Good luck with the sale.

Off topic just a tad, but, does that mean you're gonna be selling the other one and your new diesel too ?

Diesel will be for sale but that will go last, got a streetwise diesel which will be up once its washed and possibly the red one, quite attached to that so might keep it in storage. Been thinking about oz for ages and only just found out if I don't go before I'm 31 I can't get a visa so have been granted one now and will leave in a few months once I've sorted everything out

Yeah - you need to just get hold of a nice Zs to tide you over until you see something you really want.

Being a single seater she wouldn't be able to.........

TBH looking at the spec the only obvious problem with MOTs would be Perspex windows.

I do the cha-cha like a sissy girl.

I "lika"... do... da cha-cha.

redzed 30-03-14 08:13 AM

I did try and get an mot on it so it could run on the road and it doesn't stand a chance. Firstly the cams are timed in such a way that it won't pass it's emmisions on idle, it's ok at 3k just not idle. Secondly because of its ulta lightweight flywheel it stalls very easily added to this is a race clutch which doesn't slip at all so unless you are giving everything straight away you just stall, great around a track tho as its like a bullet. The only was it would be good on the road is if you put a normal clutch and flywheel back on and put a cat and pre car back on and fitted the different springs as what's on there is hard for the road. That being said on the way back from the mot centre the drive home was great!!

Have you had the car dyno'd?

Mark S 02-04-14 06:48 AM

I wouldn't worry too much about peak figures for racing - assuming that's what you intend to do? its more how fat the power is and how quick it accelerates (such as from 60-90), there are many things a race car needs that an average dyno just does not measure.

Eh? I'm not worried about anything. I was just asking if he'd had it put on a rolling road as I was interested in the engine performance?

Mark S 07-04-14 07:21 AM

I am surprised this car has not sold yet, especially when you compare it to stuff like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MG-ZS-180-...item233885cde0 for sale on ebay!

Agree with you there Mark, that one is unbelievable. The spec is not far off from mine, even I don't think I could get more than £1k for it! Ian's is spot on and if I had the funds it would have been snapped up.
