Hope its not got any worse Grimmy, I don't have a garage so it has to live outside all the time.

Yeah I'm pretty lucky to have the garage and that is two winters it hasn't been on the road so hopefully it will slow down the rot.been driving a very nice zt 190 this winter and TBH I have fallen in love with it.

Sent my Mk1 through the Irish MOT yesterday and it failed on advanced corrosion on the subframe and the offside chassis rail amongst many other things. She will become a donor for the XPG Mk2 now

SHAME, but they are all getting on a bit now.

It will keep as many ZSs as possible going. The scrap man won't get his hands on the car till it's just a bare shell. I have the Mk2 going up to a mate of mine who works for a rust repairers tomorrow morning. There is only a few patches of surface rust on the floorpans and under the fuel tank etc. but it only needs to be wire brushed back, treated and then sealed with waxoyl or something simillar. Comes with a 5 year garuntee on it aswell. Saves the bit of hassle in future
