ZS 180 Saloon
 
Hi,

Looking for an MK1 ZS 180 Saloon in Blue. Blue is the preference but would consider Green or Yellow.

Would also consider an MK2 ZS 180 Saloon in any colour if within budget.

Budget is £1,500

Thanks

Hi and welcome

£1500 should buy you a good example mk1 or decent mk2.

£1500 would buy you my green one, once the engine transplant has been done!

£1500 will buy you a mint mk1 or a reasonable mk2.

My advice would be to get a pre 2002 mk1 with low miles.

The early ones have far superior build quality and under sealing and generally feel more solid. Around 2002 "Project Drive" was introduced where "unnecessary" components such as heat shields, sound proofing, under sealing etc were dropped.

For £1500 if you shop around you will get a fantastic mk1. Really, with the mk2 yo are paying for the looks.

Interesting. So should a post 2002 MK1 be avoided?
