My new ZS-X

Collected this from Ralph at executive motoring services yesterday and spent a while giving it a good scrub up.

The car was a development car from MG with a view to bringing out a ZS-X as a production model, which would have been fitted with a supercharger (hence the bonnet bulge)

It was specced to the eyeballs and has twilight monogram paint, rear parking sensors, grey alcantara and half leather seats, traffic master, headlight washers (which aren't plumbed in yet) rear electric windows, electric tilt and slide sunroof, and also has an x-power back box and janspeed manifolds.

The company graphics on the side took ages to get off, and I had to do paintwork correction on the doors to finish it all off. I've fitted a new MG badge to the front, and a xenon headlight kit.

More mods and upgrades to follow

I'm VERY jealous, i would've really liked to have that car!! Just a shame the supercharger isn't still in there!! But hey, i'm sure that could be rectified!!!
