Bad Luck
Hi Guys
I hope you are all well and noone has trashed your babies, also my apologies for not being on here and submiting to threads and flyering other vehicles for that matter.
As some of you might remeber I have had some bad luck with my MGZS120 as people are always trying to reck it.
No too long ago some one drove into the back and weeks later some one had a go a ripping my extreme spolier off while I was parked in Manchester in Eccles at the morrisons store.
After weeks of waiting and chasing morrisons they have agreed to pay for the damage all on their costs. Which is really lucky I guess as I dont have to claim it from my insurance.
The beast will go in on the 4th of december, for the damage to be repaired.
All this stress has finally resulted in getting a whole new respray for my ZS. YEY GREAT!!!!!!!
Mine is currently trophy blue and im not sure whether to keep that colour as it is very nice or to change it. What do my fellow MG owners think?

excellent news man, hope it all goes well
I'd just keep it blue if I was you, no point in complicating things

Nice to hear that Morrisons are agreeing to pay for it...
As for the whole re-spray... I'm not sure. While it would be nice to have a change people may ask questions if you ever decide to sell it.

That is very good news!
Go for a monogram finish that fits in with the blue scheme

TBH if you can manage to get them to pay for it... I'd say to go for one of the fancy colours that were part of the monogram option you never see.

Na, Typhoon is the most common. I was thinking something more like these:
Bittersweet - Golden yellow with green ‘flip’
Moonshine - Silver with shifting spectral highlights
Shot Silk - Emerald with purple flip
Aurora - Crimson to orange ‘travel’
Dark Fantasy - Black to purple to bronze travel
Poseidon - Dark blue to purple over olive travel
Twilight - Brighter blue to purple travel
Atmosphere - Light to mid blue with gold highlights
Gulf Stream - Smokey slate shifting to olive and grey-blue
Moody Blue - Grey-blue with gold highlights
Biomorphic - Bright metallic green
Black Olive - Luxuriant dark green with movement to black
