just bought a zs
hello to forum

Have gone with my heart and bought this zs 2.5 v6 plus as replacement for my honda prelude 2.2 vtec.

have noticed clutch petal is high photos attached.

just picked up car two days back.

The miles are 60000 on the clock.

also this car as mgzs.co.uk markings on front and rear windows, does anyone one recognise and maybe no any of this cars history.

help and advise please.

thanks kev

I recognise the reg plate. Am sure it will be disclosed very soon!

I still miss my ignition blue 180. Stays cleaner longer than the black one does!

Hi and welcome

Nice upgrade, the prelude is nice but the ZS is better.

The high clutch peddle is normal.

Firstly . Pedal looks higher than normal, or is it because I have the 'sheddist' kit and now forgotten what the OE sat like?

Nice zed and is that the higher VED bracket, looks like an 06 plate.

I was wondering exactly the same thing, could be the angle of the photo making it look higher too??



Anyways, hopefully nowt wrong with it and welcome to the site. I think i recognise the car too but not sure who's it was??

Hello Kevin,

Looks like you bought JIMZS180's old ZS



The ZS180 never came in a "Plus" model, they were only for the 110 and 120.

Here is another angle on the clutch pedal and a another view off the car.

It was mot,d in march 11 in newcastle , so one owner for five years then sold to a lad in perth soon after.

cheers kev

That's why I recognise it!!! Did you get it from Perth? If you are local, you're local to me too.

And that clutch pedal is normal. My mk2 180 has the sheddist kit so is lower but my mk1 180 had a really high clutch pedal like yours.
