i went from a 180 to a 120 via a zt 160, mainly coz the 120 has all the looks of the 180 but cheaper to run, although a 2.0l turbo engine could be coming my way soon ........................whats that in my mirror getting further away.................oh yes a 180 zs
i had a mk1 180 now own a mk2 120 and yes if you do the miles or use it a lot there is a big differance in the two 180 is by far the best power ive ever owned the 120 suites my needs as i only do 80 miles a week for work .
LOL, so did I.
I replaced my MKI 180 for an MKII 120.
Never really regretted it though. Imho the MKII is the better lokking car.
The lack of power was noticable ofcourse, but never really bad.
It's the modding itch in me that had me update to a 1.8 vvc but that was only after four years of driving the 120 with great pleasure
i maybe looking into getting another 120 soon and sorning the 180 just for the simple case it looks like if my interview goes to plan thursday i may have to triple my traveling time for work
........................whats that in my mirror getting further away.................oh yes a 180 zs
