Thinking About Buying A ZS 120

[leezs110]

You may also want to consider the ZS110 model which is the baby of the ZS family, has a 1.6 engine!

I have to say i love mine it goes really well & does everything i ask of it, no doubt the 1.8 will have more low down torque but the little 1.6 revs like a nutter & is great fun to drive!

It really does depend what floats ya boat really, but theres a good choice between engines, 1.6, 1.8, 2.5 petrols & not forgetting the 2.0 Turbo Diesel models.

i have a MK2 zs it got in 2 years ago on 15k on the clock i paid 4 k for mine but its the 120+

i got these bits on mine

Parking sensors on the rear
full 180 kit
air con
electric windows on the front
spot lights
17" straight alloys
factory alrarm (very loud)
power steering of coarse

im now coming up to 60,000 and have had no major problems with the head gasket yet ive found this to be the best car i have own and driven and would be a hard push to sell it its great on fuel and its good fun to play on legal roads

Agreed, ZR for the ladies

Great cars, the plus points being superb handling, cheap to run, nice looks and quite rare.
I get 35 mpg out of mine, but recently got 520 miles out of a tank, nearly 45mpg!

Ive had mine for 4 years and covered 45000 miles.

Costs over that time:
2 MOT passes
2 MOT fails - 1 for knackered wiper blade, 1 for CV boots (budget for these as they WILL go at some point!) around £150

Head Gasket Failure - uprated Land Rover kit around £500

4 tyres - £60 a corner

2 sets of front discs and pads - £100 a time

Cambelt service - £300

Great cars and really good fun on track (The reason why ive got through so many brakes!)

Only annoying things with the car are the interior rattles that I have learned to live with, noisy suspension, bodywork easily dents, poorly made seats and bulbs seem to blow all time!

Dont worry about parts, everything is still easily available.

Apart from MkII bodykit parts.
