Am I missing something?
 

It looks like a monogram but it's smashed up and has a water pump leak.....

Someone will buy it as a project I suspect. 1 of 2 moonshine makes it rare.

but once repaired it'll require an awesome painter if it gets away without a full respray, and if it gets a full respray it doesn't matter what colour it is.

Except that it will be moonshine from the factory... And according to the Monogram "clique" thats what makes a monogram. Take your Perl Black ZS and spray it moonshine and it is not a monogram in their eyes...

I *think* the winning bidder at the moment is a certain Biomorphic Green ZS owner... or one of his friends at least. (And he's spent over £10k getting that Bio up to scratch)

Big money already. That'll need a good panel beater and sprayer to sort that.

Just come on f/b

Mg zs 180 mk2 in monogram sunspot yellow. 80k, history, fresh mot. Alcantara seats, 11 spokes, fully working aircon/climate control, colour coded interior, mgf trophy steering wheel, good strong v6 engine, smoked rear lights, front yellow seat belts, number 13 of 15 and 1 of only 4 mk2. Not perfect as it's a 14+ year old car. Needs paint in a few small places, never fussed me and it's won several shows like it. Full stainless exhaust system, rear parking sensors, mg rally mudflaps, chrome mirror caps. Very well known car. £8000 ono

Wish I had bought a monogram when they weren't quite as expensive!

Over 5K !

Maybe if it wasn't damaged aswell - but - come on ..... Bet whoever traded it in didn't get offered anything like that for it.

Madness...

£7,100 .....
WTF
Odds on it being re-listed ....?

That's getting near monogram ZT V8 money .....

£20k....

£30k?!?!

Ok. Someone is having a laugh...

If you were on Facebook, you would see how pathetic this is, loads of twats enjoying themselves to put high bids on this, just for fun...

Pearl black is a monogram. the most common.

Another Sam IIRC.

Tomkinson? I doubt he would have paid that... but could be wrong!

I'm not sure pearl black makes it into the monogram scheme.

I made a comment the other day on facebook about respraying my ZS in a monogram colour and selling it for £60k, but I was told it wasn't a true monogram because, aside from the "wrong build data" the interior would be completely wrong.

So, going back to my question. What makes a monogram a monogram if its not just paint. And I don't mean the build data side, I just mean the car itself...

I guess to a collector it's the provenence. Factory production V Replica.

Re-advertised now as a classified advert for £10K.

Funnily enough it's just what I paid for this , go figure....

There she is !!

Have you paid your $399?

Haha No, flaming joke it is mate. Surely business suicide by them? .

Great motor, Loz.

:):):)

Seems to be hit and miss with the prices on the zs . Ive got a firefrost 180 on a 54 plate and I think its in fairly good condition for a 12 year old car puts some cars a lot newer to shame when its been polished . But you see these cars going for around a grand to £1500 there is no way id be selling mine for that its worth way more to me than that . Now here is the big question do you think our zeds will ever be a classic and fetch good money in the future I,m told by some people they will one day and others saying the zs never will be a classic and also some say the mk1 might but not the mk2 now I thought maybe the other way around as there are less mk2 about guess its just hold on to them and see what happens

better the devil you know, they go well and look good, long as you keep the rust at bay cannot go wrong with them.

Specially in Trophy Yellow, Classic already. :-)

What else can you buy that ticks so many boxes.

Well - as of an hour ago, I'm looking at what ZSs are about. Just ordered a new Jacuzzi....:trampoline:

Got the BMW for 2 months then I'll be back in a ZS ..... double good day.:)
