if i did sell my current zed i would defo buy a hatchback mk1 180

all depends on finances in a couple of months really as im getting a promotion in about a fortnights time

I dont know why, getting rid of my 180 was the best thing I ever did tbh (apart from selling my BINI). They arent all that quick for what they are and are a nightmare on fuel costs, insurance and tax. Your LPG 1.6 is the way forward, youve done the right thing

Phil.... You really are a sphincter lol What else do you know that can 0-60 in 7 secs for ?1k or less?
30mpg isn't bad when you take into consideration its a big V6 and you said to me last week you regret selling your mk2!! Tax granted is a sore issue but insurance isnt to bad depending on your circumstances! How much was it to insure over your diesel? ?180?

I rest my case m'lord.

I do agree with you on every point they're

I'm enjoying putting ?20 of LPG and getting 250 miles out of it opposed to ?20 to 80 miles in petrol in the V6 I think I jus miss the noise tbh

Personally i dont think the 180 is toooo bad on fuel, unless you really put your foot down. But its all about the noise it makes as it gets there, cant beat that.
