Saw this at my local garage

Saw this MGZS 180 at my local garage for sale so stopped to have a look but as you notice from the picture there isnt an exhaust poking out at the back so got down and had a look it was there but it was about 5" behind the bumper and it was pointing down like a diesel, is this correct

Don't know about the pointing down bit but it sounds like its got a hatch exhaust on it to be 5" shorter
Think the smaller engined models had downward pointing tailpipes as they didn't have the cut out in bumper.

did it have climate control inside? I'm sure the 180 is the only one that had it

Sounds like the exhaust has been replaced with, as said, a hatch diesel exhaust. Seen quite a few like this tbh.

As far as climate control is concerned I think it was an optional extra on non 180's as I am sure I have seen other non 180's with it

In fact Powerflow put a second, new exhaust on after the 12 month check, as it was knocking underneath, he also pushed the tail pipe out about an 1" to stop the black soot on the boot.

Great service from Powerflow.
