The cars
Previously owned prior to current MG ZS 180 Skoda Octavia 1.8T 4x4 Estate - Remap to 194 Bhp (MIJ Performance Walsall) - Pipercross panel air filter - AP coilover adjustable suspension (Awesome GTI) Current Car MG ZS 180 (Bhp unknown – 180-185 approx.) - Decat Exhaust (brand unknown) - Piper cross cone with DIY cold air feed Pros & Cons The power delivery is completely different while both cars feel as powerful the MG ZS 180 needs to be on the high revs to compete also due to the extra torque from the Octavia (remapped) the power lasts longer with advantage of 4 wheel drive (less wheel spin). The MG ZS 180 looks great the Octavia looks like a bog standard car The MG ZS 180 sounds beastly the Octavia purred. Fit a flat pack double bed in the Octavia and still room for wife and child. The Octavia 1.8T 4X4 looks bog standard and to look at it you would not know it could beat an Octavia (Mk 1) VRS off the line (wolf in sheeps clothing ) surprised a few people. The MG ZS 180 cornering is as standard is as good as the Octavia with adjustable suspension the MG ZS fills you with confidence Interior is great in the MG ZS 180 love the colour coded seats Octavia cloth seats. To summarise you could ask or say it is quite a change going from the Octavia to the MG ZS however the Octavia was as fun to drive as the MG ZS is now and that’s what both the cars have in common the only thing is I love the look and sound of the MG ZS I think im an addicted as I am now always looking for excuses to go to shops etc. anything to get behind the wheel…………LOVE IT :super: |
Glad you are liking it mate :) Keep enjoying it!

Cheers mate hard not to like it

I love my 180, the sound is second to none. Unfortunately my soppy German Shepherd doesnt find the saloon as comfy.

Interesting read, until you have driven a 180 you would never know.
