Overall i love my ZS but
1)the one touch drivers window switch, only goes down in one unless you press up again when you want to stop it

2)have a small water leak in boot

3)a tappety rattle on the engine (told it is whats known as 'piston slap?)

apart from that its all good!

does anybody else have this mysterious rattle on their engine?

mattie007 is just really nicemattie007 is just really nicemattie007 is just really nicemattie007 is just really nicemattie007 is just really nice
Just a few bugs with mine:

Rattle from passenger seatbelt area and from passenger airbag.

Lack of soundproofing around doors and wheelarches (fixing soon!)

Lack of skirts and xtreme spoiler (also fixing soon! I hope!)

Bumper gaps (front sorted, rear to do)

Something broken or rattling in steering column?!

Tappetty engine

Downpipe rattle

Think thats it!!

On both cars - The Ark Royal sized turning circle. Tendancies to not demist in winter

The MK1 - The fact that I managed to tear a hole in the drivers bolster with my jeans. How quickly my exhaust corroded. That's about it.

The MK2 - The diesel engine. Or more specifically the poor quality of construction. Lots of little niggles not the least the exploding timing belt.

lack of after-market modifications when compared to other cars.

sagging rear bumpers on the mk2's is annoying too!

can't say i've noticed any rattles in either my 45 or ZS though!!

The one thing that really does pee me off is the amount of water that comes out of everywhere when you are leathering it off. Must be about half a pint around each door handle.
