What do you think???

Just having a think..........

I have a 2006 MK2 115+ ZS, its got 28,000 miles on its in good condition, slight scuff mark on the rear bumper were the previous owner must have ignored the reversing sensor's...lol a few stone chips as you would expect!!

How much do you think i could get for this, fancy getting something a bit faster....possibly a mk1 180!

Burning question is, does it have the 180 bodykit? as this would make a difference.

Otherwise have you given any thought on tuning it up?

That looks great fella, like Mick said....tune it some, a decent chip etc should give you extra ponies. (Cobalt business park?)

That's a beauty, I would honestly keep that and tune it up, you will get the best of everything there, looks, low tax, performance AND economy! Why go backwards to a mk1?

Don't discount 'just' 130, it's the torque that counts His ZS is no slouch, I would honestly think twice about this.

Talk to Rover_Ron over on .org. His avatar says he's from northumberland, so pretty local. He also has a thread, here's the link:
