Get the 620ti and keep the 180.

Track day the 620ti and see how you feel in 6 months.

Not for me - but your call. Very different in terms of what they offer I would imagine. Sure the ZS is a far sharper drive, but if you want a comfier cruiser and a few quid in your pocket - go for the Ti

Then, when you realise that you want the better driving experience of the ZS, butcher the engine out of it and drop it into a Mk2 110 ZS !

No comparison. I personally wouldnt have a ti over a zs 180.

In std form, the 180 will see off a ti in both performance and handling.

The only places the ti will score is comfort and space. Thats it.

Plus ti looks dated and drives like an old car.

The zs maybe a bit old in the tooth in some peoples eyes, but it still has that driving appeal everytime you get behind the wheel, whereas the ti doesnt.

A lot of it depends on the figures involved, how much are the 2 cars worth etc.

With the current price of ZS's I'd seriously consider the offer.

The 620 is quite a heavy car and the suspension is bog standard Rover, so wallows in the bends. A 620 engine in a 420 shell would be a sensible alternative to a 180.
