I've not been on TheMGZS for a while as I've been busy with to many other projects. Sadly I've had to sell my much loved ZS 180 as I no longer have a use for it. My wife was using a VW Tiguan as the do all family car, so the MG had a place as my daily transport. Sadly my wife has decided to trade in the Tiguan for the much smaller Astra GTC. The GTC although nice does lack the space and usefulness of a mid sized 4X4 we were used to with VW. The upshot is I now need the useful car. So the 180 has had to make way for a Freelander. I have decided to get the V6 version so I can still get that 180 engine sound even if performance is somewhat hampered by the extra weight and auto gearbox. I'm a fan of the KV6 so just couldn't let go of it completely.
I'll be about from time to time.
Thanks for such a wonderful forum.
John.
