New MK2 ZS 180 saloon

Good your keeping on road, it's all too easy for good cars to be scrapped these days but I think our generation will come to regret the current situation when there's none left in 10-20 years time to enjoy.

Agree is a shame, the guy who owned it was saying of wasn't gone by this weekend was going to scrap

No different to any car, when did you last see a Ford Corsair or a Peugeot 104 or a Vauxhall Cavalier or an Alfa 33 - all cars that have been in my family that I haven't seen on the road in a very long time. TBF I wouldn't care if I did see the Pug or the cav again but the Corsair was good and I'd have another 33 tomorrow.

I had one too - great engine. Nice car.

There's a white limited edition one coming up at auction soon.

In Sicily last week we visited a museum about the Targa Floria road rally in Sicily. Amongst the race cars including Ferrari, Porsche, original Mini Cooper and full on race cars (one was a 1972 33 2/2 race car) there was a normal road going 33 estate.

He also had grills from a 1950's MG TF and a MG Metro, amazing place, wonderful owner who spent 2 hours showing us around, a must visit if you are near Palermo.
