MG ZS 180 MK2 Saloon in firefrost

[staccato]

Have decided the time has come to sell my car in order to clear a few personal debts before buying my first house, so reluctantly my ZS 180 is up for sale.

2004 '04' reg MK 2 saloon in Firefrost pearlescent.
24,900 miles from new

The car has been tastefully modified with the following:

Janspeed exhaust manifolds
Janspeed sports cat
Janspeed cat back exhaust (Genuine X-Power backbox)
ITG Maxogen induction kit
Piper cams and vernier pulleys
Dastek Unichip
Xenon headlights
Alpine IDA X-001 Ipod specific head unit
X-Power silver gear knob
X-Power interior mats
Grey alcantara interior (inc rear headrests)
EBC Yellow stuff front pads
Motorola bluetooth hands free system
Michelin Pilot Exalto 2 tyres all round

MOT due August (it flew through the two it had with no advisories at all)
It will have 6 months tax on it as of end of April as it's due.

I have a huge A4 envelope full of receipts ranging from all the above items, to oil, spark plugs, filters, rolling road graphs, wiper blades, bulbs, wheel tracking adjustments, MOT tests etc....

Car has never been used on track or drag strip

It had a final rolling road result after the cams of 204bhp and the fuelling is spot on throughout the rev range thanks to the unichip.

Alloys are all undamaged, alcantara seats are almost brand new and have no damage, windscreen was replaced last year so is new condition. Cambelts were changed 2k ago with the cams.

Couple of door 'trolley' dints were removed last month by Spray-Tech Maidstone so the car is completely smooth on every panel.

Has also been run on optimax or BP ultimate since May 2007

I'm happy to give any more details or up close photos to anyone who asks.

These are the most up to date photos so far, and I'll add more to this post later in the afternoon.


Total spent on modifications has been £5000 not including the servicing items and most labour costs for the exhaust fitting.

Asking price is £5995

This is my settlement figure on my existing loan so at this price I will be making no profit. Would like to see it go to an enthusiast ideally

I can't afford it but I have to say that car is stunning

What does the unichip do?

180s apparently need a piggyback chip for a remap. At least that's what I was told when I enquired about one.

it basically adjusted the fuelling to ensure it was all ok after all the modifications

I could be wrong, just what I was told when I spoke to a company near me about it. Maybe it's just that different companies have different methods of doing it.

Nice car and a great spec.

Good luck with the sale..........

Very nice zed and tastefully modified, but I think you are hedging your bets on the price, good luck anyway.

As for the Unichip method, odd that as mine has had a direct remap uploaded into the ecu using the current map as the datum.

I've had offers of £5900 and £6500 before it even went on Autotrader
