The plan...
 
As some of you know, my ZS 180 over the last week has had some issues with the cooling system. After doing some research on this forum & the XPower forum, i'm a bit sceptical of the vehicles history/treatment.

Bearing this in mind, after christmas i've decided to source an engine & at my leisure, rebuild it. At least then i'll be safe in the knowledge that I know what i'm driving! Then, rebuild the original lump out of mine.

I'll also be on the lookout for mild performance parts when rebuilding :smart:

There will of course be a thread started dedicated to this.

I like the idea, I'd try and make sure you source a V6 out of another zs, the zt and Freelander seem to be more prone to hgf for some reason
