Random question: ZS Coupe

[skyblueads]

Has anyone ever considered building a ZS coupe, based on the Civic coupe? Wondered how much the Civic hatch and Coupe share and if the ZS' front end would fit?



Just a random one...

Another one that should have been.

Interesting idea

Would have been awesome as an original factory car.

It should work though, maybe some modifications to rear bumper and clever body work if you wanted ZS rear lights but take it to a chassis and build from bones and it should be achievable, though potentially time consuming.

Myself to make it more MG would have to fit a K-series, i'd go turbo 1.8 200bhp spec ofcourse.

I'd agree - the K Series would have to go in. MkII and bodykit would be cracking. Hmm...

No chance the mighty, under appreciated ROVER K-16 in 1800 Turbo variation.

I'm certain Rover engineers would have conceived a prettier skin for their derivative.

Something sharper and more dynamic, every Rover model was more attractive than their
Honda counterpart.

Amen to that. I passed a Civic in my ZS today and the contrast between the two is stunning!

I don't think it would work I'm not 100% but the Civic that was to 400's counterpart (actually called the Domani just badged as a Civic in Europe) was the MB5 and the coupe was the EK chassis. I don't think the parts would be as easily interchangeable as they would be for the Aerodeck to make the 45 Tourer
