Mk2 Saloon vs Hatchback
 

Opinions sought pls ... which one would you get and why ....
Was fancying a Saloon ... but this has popped up

Personally I prefer the Saloon (for reasons stated in other posts) but that is a very nice example of a MK2 hatch! Even I'd be tempted... (MK2 Hatch is so much better than MK1 hatch in my opinion)

If you go to the General forum on page 8 there is a large post on Hatch V Saloon

PS. Hatch every time

Good advert (someone certainly has the gift of the gab) but as said before, age-old discussion!
Personally I would say buy Chaz's derv hatchback, because other than the engine there isn't a single thing that you'll find in that 180 that can't be found in scrapyards and retro-fitted. Then with the combined purchase costs and ongoing running costs, you'll be laughing all the way to the bank.

PS Ditto

I would say buy Chaz's derv hatchback - where is this advertised?

Not sure if it IS advertised anymore, but see here for where he was trying to find out what to put it up for: http://www.themgzs.co.uk/vb/showthre...=23213&page=11

I really like the saloon with extreme spoiler.
I brought a hatch because our buggy would not of fitted into the saloon.

IMO saloon looks better but hatch is more pratical when you have a baby.

I have two kids... never ever had a problem with practicality on either of my saloons... I had more problems with buggies etc when I had the hatch... the saloon was, and still is, more practicable for me :)

Love the advert, lots of nonsense facts, and incorrect spec., anyway digressing, saloon for me, no reason!

That's a very nice ZS, plenty of bs in the advert, good to see plenty of pictures of a car that is clean inside and out, some history, cambelts done, I prefer saloons personally, but it is a good spec.
