Bit random, but...

Do all the ash tray compartment things in 180's have a 'v6' sticker on them? I swear loads I've seen don't.

Was it a 'cost saving' thing that Rover did and removed them from later 180's?

I don't think ANY ash trays had V6 sticker on them... Must be an aftermarket addition to yours

Looks very OE though, I'll get a pic It's on a Y reg so thought it might have only been done to the very early ZS' and then Rover became bigger cheap skates and stopped doing it

Mines a Y plate too & it hasn't got that. May be it's a OEM sticker just off a different Marque?

Ah right, swear I have seen it on other ZS' but I might be making that up (most likely as I have a terrible memory LOL)

Just thought it looked quite OE haha! Ah well! Hopefully won't be a v6 for long anyway, wish my engine would turn up so I could start the rebuild (damn snow!)
