Bummer fella, hope you can get her fixed up, really was a lovely car

I'd like another Mk2 ZS diesel with the body kit, but i'll have to get something cheap to run around in until something turns up.

Or get a 120 with the kit fitted, or buy the body kit bit by bit and fit it to a standard ZS diesel

I'd say not many... The writing is on the wall for this one.

New / different MG or a new / different 'other'.
