At Last Our MG ZS 180
 
Well, if you look at my profile and previous posts I have been lurking for a while now. Finally got in to a position to get the MG and thanks to a tip off from Dan on here we are quids in thank you very much!!

Yes, our very own 2005 MG ZS 180. 65k miles, FSH, one owner from new, even comes with the dealer pack and the build sheet! Can't ask for more than that!

Downside, engine light on (sticking balance VIS and Lamba Pre-Heater failer), intermittent ABS light (Rear n/s wheel sensor).

Had her on the rolling road yesterday on the way home just to check everything out and showing 176BHP and 175ft.lb. Just as MG intended!

So, couple of small jobs to do starting with the VIS. A little annoyed as it had a second hand unit fitted last year but hey ho. For the money the car is spot on.

Special thanks to Ollie (OllieZS on here) for the company and another set of eyes over the car prior to buying it. Just given her a clean and glad to say nothing sinister has appeared. Couple of age related marks but no rust! Even the tank is in reasonable condition so happy with that.

All I need now is another set of wheels for her, and then to upgrade front pads and discs (if anyone has anything interesting lying around let me know) ahead of a track day in December at Goodwood!

More to follow now doubt......

Looks a good buy, sort out the niggles and will be a great car.

Glad you got some help from the guys on here.

Looks good, worth more than the asking with everything going for it.

Yep - looking good pal.

Not sure if you'll have any vis issues if you've had it RR'd and got that result though....:hmmm:

That looks nice and tidy and little niggles on a 180 at this age are always going to be sorted.
Nice find.

Looks a good one that, well done.
