Look on the plus side, 180's are stupidly cheap, to the point of wrong! So what it costs to buy and then run would be cheaper than another marque in the long run. Like for like what else is there that is equal in purchasing price?

Read your own thread and posts after you bought it mate if you need reminding why you've got it, and a few from when you had your 180 before you sold it.....

Stick an induction kit on it mate until you have confirmed your promotion and your funds....

if i did sell my current zed i would defo buy a hatchback mk1 180

all depends on finances in a couple of months really as im getting a promotion in about a fortnights time

more money and im hoping at renewal time my insurance will come down so i might just be able to afford one again

I dont know why, getting rid of my 180 was the best thing I ever did tbh (apart from selling my BINI). They arent all that quick for what they are and are a nightmare on fuel costs, insurance and tax. Your LPG 1.6 is the way forward, youve done the right thing

Phil.... You really are a sphincter lol What else do you know that can 0-60 in 7 secs for ?1k or less?
30mpg isn't bad when you take into consideration its a big V6 and you said to me last week you regret selling your mk2!! Tax granted is a sore issue but insurance isnt to bad depending on your circumstances! How much was it to insure over your diesel? ?180?

I rest my case m'lord.
