ZS 180 wanted
Hi Guys, I am after a ZS 180. It has to be mint, low mileage, with full service history and preferably with the cambelts been changed, and preferably not modded.
Used to have a 214 SEI many years ago, we currently have a Focus (boring) and fancy something with a bit of poke and isn't common as muck. There seems to be very few near me (Oxford) My Budget is up to £2k. If you know of any please let me know. Cheers Mike |
:hi: to the site Mike.
Well that counts my one out then! :laugh: |

It does seem like a bit of an ask. There are a couple I am going to go look at hopefully this week. We don't need it till end of December when our Focus goes back, but the sooner I get it the longer I get to drive it before 'her indoors' destroys it.

Agree with Stamford, but "Don't ask, don't get". :) |
There is one in North wales http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1237726.htm its not had the cambelts changed and there is an ABS warning, might ask if he would take £1500 but might just wait for something else to turn up. Would really like a trophy blue one.
Thanks for the welcomes BTW. Cheers Mike |

if it were just for me then I would pull your arm off but ........... its mainly for my missus and for insurance reasons we are after a standard one. Cheers for the offer though.

could be interested, let me know if and when you want to sell.
|
If your in Oxford then your more than welcome to come down and have a look at it?
|
Mick if I wasn't at uni now I would buy your car off you right this second no questions asked!!!
To be honest, I doubt you will find a mint 180 for £2k. You could get one, but to get a true clean 180 with no work required and belts done you are looking at 3k judging by autotrader and ebay prices. |
I am going to look at one on Thurs, 44k miles full service history 8 stamps including belts done at 36k for £2k. Supposed to be mint with no problems. He said its a little bit tappity cold but quite as when warm apparently they are all like that? Fingers crossed.
|
not all its a common thing called piston slap i think its called
|
if its a 180 its proberly the plenum. budget £500 for this.
none of my 180 have been tappety when cold. or hot. |
I will give it a good going over, could it just be the purge valve? I must admit all this Plenum/VIS problems is really starting to put me off buying one.
