Optional extras on zs 180?
Hi guys. I don't know a lot about the ZS 180. Had a little look around the forum earlier. I may consider getting the later model, the facelift one. Just considering at this stage and still keeping my options open. What are the main differences between the two other then the exterior, if any differences? What sort of optional extras did they come with? If I do choose to get one, I want all the extras with it if possible. And any common issues with these cars? Thanks, Rav.

180s have a few issues to look out for, the plastic bodied clutch slave and master cylinders fail because they are not up to the job, a fix is available from Sheddist on xpf.
Rattling inlet manifolds and failed vis mechanisms are also an issue, wether or not timing belts are due is a good negotiating point, they're about ?500 to get done.
mk2 seem to have some inferior quality interior parts like the carpet, which was better quality in early cars.
Options available were things like the xtreme boot spoiler, leccy rear windows, seat coverings, iirc a sunroof was also an option.

Early mk1's had the extreme boot spoiler as standard with the low level one as a no cost option. Mk2's is the other way around and the extreme spoiler being a cost option.
Extras being as listed already plus rear parking sensors, rear headrests, monogram paint finishes, mongram interiors including seats, not so sure on later dash trims, headlight washers and not much more tbh as it was well specc'd to start with.

I've got a brochure somewhere - and I'm sure that with the Mk2 you could spec sat nav.

Ok, climate control was standard on the mk2, my bad
But that list is crazy, mine came with ~?3k worth of extras... bargain!
And given that I have no 6 disc changer which is standard, Ill assume that it had one of the better stereos, too? Anyway of checking that?
