Parking sensors (having read the great how to on here, 23 quid and an hour to do!)

START BUTTON....dunno why just gotta have one..

Wheels refurbed (was gonna be hypersilver but now I've seen smokeys white ones.....hmmmm)

Site Stickers !!!!!

Might debadge the back...?

Might try and find a trim shop and have the door cards retrimmed with blue alcantara to match the seats..

Like the tf mirror mod...

Like the TF steering wheel...


Finances/time dependant on all the aforementioned
Parking sensors, xpower knob (not on list), start button, site stickers all sitting on the table waiting for better weather along with a 7" monitor to put in the back for the kids hooked upto the head unit, stainless kick plates picked up from a scrappy, just waiting for my mg xpower decals to arrive to finish them off and put on, thermostat leak fixed (thanks Lates) wheel refurb soon but still can't decide colour! not gonna de-badge, ain't got the dough fot the door card retrim! Will change the wheel when i find a cheap one to have refinished in blue...

I have slowed up driving now......so instead of getting 180 miles to a tank........I'm getting 280 quite chuffed with myself really as that is the same as my Pilot Sportsvan which has a Pug 1.9 diesel engine and only 70bhp.

I have just ordered some more ICE for my ZS now.......thanks go to Wilko66 and Carmadbaker for their guidance I hope to get that fitted by Brooklands fingers crossed
