I hate the plenum and I hate the fact that tuning the engine is expensive for not much gains.
Personal hates....
Dents eveywhere (roof, bonnet, boot, c pilar, doors and bumpers), scratches everywhere (every bloody panel has one somewhere
), rear bumper that seems too wide for the car and is sagging badly, panel gaps that are out of place generally, not much headroom unless you shimmy your bum to the front of the seat (I managed to cover all those hundreds of miles comfortably enough though)
I don't think there is much wrong with the ZS generally.......there are plenty of really crap cars out there before you even look at MG Rover.
If I didn't have a ZS I would almost have certainly got myself a MGF 160 Trophy instead and sorted that out for trackdays but the ZS seemed more sensible at the time (now spent more than £7000 on it in less than a year
)
