Thats a very "hopeful" price isn't it?
Surely worth nowhere near that?

I do believe these were originally only for the Irish market but when MGR went bust the remaining ones were sold over on the mainland. A very hopeful price, ideal for a youngster, but overpriced even for them to buy.

Can see the benefits of the smaller engine for younger drivers but surely its a bit underpowered for a car of that size?

Next you'll be saying the 1.4 45 was underpowered?

Or the ZT 120 was underpowered?

THe ZS TDi was 101 BHP origionally... and noone complained that was underpowered

Now there's a sheep in wolf's clothing if ever I saw one.
Only 32500 miles - probably limited by steep hills in every direction!

My other ZS is a 1.4. Yes, it was popular on the Irish market as motor tax and insurance rule out anything with a larger engine for most peeps.
I wouldn't say it's underpowered, just average for its class. It's grand around town but does struggle to maintain speed on hills on the motorway. Not many of them in Ireland!

I think it was also sold in Portugal. Both Ireland and Portugal would have instruments in KPH only so I guess a conversion was needed before they were sold in UK.

A smart looker, but a very hopeful price imo.
