Track car
Im after a cheapish track car thats going to be reliable, fun and british.
My options so far- Turbo or VVC the 120 Get a stripped 180 Metro VVC Mini Cooper Its only talk at the minute and until funds allow. Any suggestions? |
Get a MGF 1.8 VVC, with HGF, repair the gasket and you have a cheap car!!!!
Ready for the track. |
Thats a great idea Pete :clap: Always fancied one aswell.
However, just browsing the for sale section and Dan has posted a link to a ZS track car...just need to find out what mods it has. |
I would say a cheap tf or zr loads of fun to be had for a few
Hundred quid. |

ZS180 ftw. Get a cheap one and strip it out, sell the parts and would be easier to maintain than an F as everything is under the cover and behind the seats. I would say an F would be a mare in the wet unless it was well sorted and with track rubber. They can be very twitchy if running crap rubber. Saying that I still wouldn't mind a VVC version to play around with.

Ive enquired about a track ready ZS 180 but its not available till October...

What about Metro GTI - 135 looks stock but a lotus eating machine.
Split suspension and running gear from Drayton Manor race car Comes with a orginal 6r4 bucket seat. Its my boses toy as he is having a clear out as he races a 1.4 Zr in metro cup, Rover BRM in PBIC and ZR160 in trophy/PBIC Very good condition tax and ticket circa 1200 from memory. Metro GTI are well over looked and giant killing machines, after all rover spun them round and called it a MGF:beer2: |
Could be interested, anymore info Pete?

im at this stage again.
Personally you cannot beat the smiles of a VVC metro, there is just somthing about them thats totally awsome they are so fast and sound lovely. the problem is for a track car, a std zs handles so well from stock, and they also sound so lovely, just not so fast. the tro i had would stick to a m3 at the lower and upper end of the speedo. conclusion, sadly the tro would probably cost more than a 180. the 180 has more street cred. I am so tempted to buy a vvc tro again |
