Got a new piper exhaust going on the car on sunday! Wanna get the paintwork look at and hopefully get it looking better!! Also found some new little flags to re-place the chequered/union jack flags on the side of the car!
And looking for some black MG badges for the front and back!

Yes I do ... It was such a well built car by comparison ... Very comfortable and easy to drive being an auto. All the toys too.

As I mentioned in your thread for your family wagon, as and when, I'd have another. Not yet though. I have a hankering for a V8 for my 40th in 18 months time, and if I could find an estate ... Who knows ... ?

Enjoying the ZS just now though, although what started out as a bargin, is developing into a (self generated) money-pit.

So far I've added a decent head unit and speakers and have the replacement plenum and mesh sitting in the shed. Add a couple of badges, the dent guy and some stripes and I'm up to just shy of £700 !

So what colour stripes are you going for ?

Are you doing it yourself.............

That I can understand, I thought you were talking about hydraulic ones to hold the bonnet open

I did fancy putting it up for a vote/poll and go with the site opinions.

I like orange, but I've got Red seats ...

I'd then end up having to get EMS alcantara covers and a plain black steering wheel and all of a sudden my bargin ZS is getting out of control.

Most likely I'll keep it Red as per the Mustang image. I'll pay a signwriter £30 to do it for me I think ....

So when you said to the o/h "I'm buying 180, it's okay I won't be doing any modding to it" did she believe you?

If she did then you are as bad for saying I won't be spending any money on it! We never change Dan

ZT-T 260, very nice!

ZT-T 260, very nice!

You know what ... She told me to get one, and even placed the winning bid for mine as I'd stopped a hundred quid earlier !

As I stayed on this site and kept looking at ZS's, even when I had the ZT-T, when the ZT sold, she basically insisted that I get a ZS.

She's OK with it to be honest. When she's got a £7K 2005 Audi diesel, she can't really moan about me having my little project, and in fairness ... she doesn't. I get a roll of the eyes and then a "Go on then ... "
