Why's that after all the work you've carried out?

I need a car that can handle country lanes and poor roads for my daily commute, a ZS on coilovers isn't really designed for that. Which then means I can have a fun weekend toy so I'm going for something more retro and rwd.

Unfortunately no one will pay anywhere near what I want for the ZS whole so I'll strip off the parts I want to keep and sell the rest.

I'll let you know when it's in bits.

Wow .... surely giving it a go whole first is the way to go rather than shred it .... seems a shame but your car I suppose.

Have tried selling it whole but no-one will pay what I want for it, with what I've done to it, it really is worth more in parts. Besides I can use the engine/ITB's/ecu in my next project.

The MGF windscreen surround is strong enough to support the weight of the car.
