Road legal track 180

A good friend and customer of mine has asked me to see if any interest in his ZS. I personally think you`ll struggle to find a better zs mechanically.

quick spec for now

MK1 51 plate
red
MOT next year I think, would re MOT it for buyer.
tax til end of nov
2.5 v6 with genuine 44k miles.
brand new inlet a couple of years back that`s probably covered 2000 miles
ITG induction
Janspeed manifolds
Decat
Piper system with custom rear section
Billet flywheel with new clutch - 500 miles at most
type B torsen box
brand new sheddist kit - 20 miles use
EBC discs and pads - 100 miles use maybe?
braided brake hoses
adjustable top suspension knuckles
adjustable tiebars on rear
recent rear discs and pads with new calipers
brm alloys in black with toyo 888`s
AVO coilovers - £1250 worth
Poly bushed throughout
interior stripped
Ex MG works seat
6 point omp harness - still in date
suede steering wheel
Full custom made roll cage
Belts were done a few years back when his 270 cams were removed. Done very little mileage since.

The car has anally been looked after. It`s a track car that`s never been driven in anger and by god I`ve slagged him for it! No expense ever spared on it. It took us many attempts to get to the AVO set up with several suspension set ups tried over a 3 - 4 month period. After every change in stiffness or drop, the car was 4 wheel aligned at main dealer - purely for the owner`s own peace of mind. The car has done only a handful of track nights in the last 3 years, and covered very little mileage. Mainly due to work commitments and my own track car dying so he had no one to chum him. It`s a clean clean car that I`m sure some of my customers will vouch for. Quick and very reliable.

Pricewise £3500.

Good spec, seems a cheap price for all the mods.

It`s one of the best examples around Peter. Puts newer models commanding big money to shame. But it`s a niche market for something like this, so thought I`d see who showed interest.

Not many cars I`ll stand by professionally, but this I would.

Sorry mark, not really the place to discuss ins and outs but, it conked out at every junction, struggled to start, sounded hellish and generally not worth the effort. Found a far greater improvement in performance from the manifolds. Was his choice to change back.

This thing destroyed the standard site track car at Knockhill. Probably helped by the driver but it was much, much quicker!
