MG ZS Handling

This has probably already come up but i have had my zs for like 2 days and i had a 200 bubble before and i have got to say the handling on it is superb. ive driven a few other cars but nothing has felt like it does when am behind the wheel of my zs. what do you guys think???

Sticks to the road like glue. Mind you after driving my Suzuki SJ for an hour, I will never slag the ZS for handling!!!. But, yeah great car to drive. I am driving Surrey to North Yorks later today & still after 5 years of ZS's love driving it

For the first while after i bought the car i was disappointed with it compared to the ZR, but now that i've had it a while and got used to it i'd say it was better.

When Tiff Needell test drove the ZS180 he proclaimed it as the best handling front wheel drive car he had ever driven. Says it all really !

Bang on there^^^^

Ever taken one around the track? The first time I tried one in anger was at Brands Hatch and was impressed. Soon after I bought one and have done track days, awesome handling even when standard!

I took my MK1 out several times around Britains most difficult circuit - Cadwell Park and it was incredible, far more reasuring and sure footed than my old ZR160. I'm yet to track the MK2 though.
