I had the black ZS before i got my company car so it just stayed and i drove it when not at work (evenings and weekends etc) the twilight was really going to be my show car - i wanted to keep it in really good condition etc. I suppose now i know that i dont have to insure it even when sorn will make the cost less and I will be able to do what I first wanted to.

Good for you mate,

Call me greedy for having 3 cars - but I just love my MGs. I had 2 ZRs before the ZS. Loved them to bits. It sounds daft but i get really attached to cars - i'm sure others will be like me too.

I hate the 6 its Orrid.....i had a look over one at Hoptons garage in sandon yesterday on the way back from Powerflow, Cheap and nasty Springs to mind..

i have a feeling ill have mine until it dies TBH but at least its not a horrid car to have for a while just Boring

I had the same until June this year, I had a 1996 Astra for work and the wife has her 09 Astra for her duties and the MG for play, but the escalating costs of 3 running cars, I sold the Astra, so the MG is getting hammered everyday now as well as her Astra

The good thing about my astra is I don't pay for it

Quite like the 6 to be honest .... Far too expensive. Should be 14K for the top spec, but if it's just the looks - I like it.

I reckon both your cars are about ?5-?5,500 - and there ain't much out there better for that money.

Think if I were you - I'd chip/remap the astra and sell the Black ZS

My black zs won't be worth 5k. Its done over 80k. Belts are done tho. My twilight one might be. I paid 4k for it.
The astra has to stay standard coz it's a company car otherwise it would certainly have been tinkered with
