I thought about this after I put my earlier post and thought that value wise you are on to a winner as long as his valuation of £300-£400 on bodywork is accurate. I would be tempted to sell it.

sounds like you got a good deal there mate i had a 20vt ibiza cupra before my zs but i missed my old zs180 so cupra went and i got another zs when i picked my zs up my dad drove that back and i was in my cupra and accelerating from 70 the zs ate my cupra but the 20vt is an easily tuneable engine airfilter,ss exhaust and a stage 1 remap would see you at about 210 bhp no trouble

well Ive been a little lucky as my boss is a big VW Golf nut and said he will put £1k into to her so bodywork and major service is coming its way and what ever I have left goes on R32 mods such as alloys, lower it as its sitting a little high, and mods to the engine.

As drewbles said I can get her up to 210 - 225 bhp for what I would class as little money and its a VW so should last a while

Ive done the text check and seems to be all ok so guess I'll just have to wait and see tonight

OMG!!!!!!!

The golf is pretty darn good, the guy didnt tell me on the phone that when he replaced the turbo he replaced it with a ko3s turbo which ups the bhp big time and he had it stage 1 chipped so its running at around 200bhp

dear god its fast, I love having a turbo car now, I'm sure there will be times when I hate it but wow wotta car.

If anyone is interested in swapping their car for a Audi A3 1.8T in met blue mot till april 2010 tax august private plate full recaro leather seats a guy on pistonheads emailed me last night for the ZS.

I will be sorry to lose the ZS but it was worth it.

Glad you're happy mate, but sounds to me more like the guys running "Zee Germans" want a bit of British KV6 raw muscle, instead of pumped up four-pot 1.8's.

Good shout but I for one, will be staying put.

lol yeah well happy

just did a bit of research and looks like it should be more like 200 - 210 going on the current mods, will have to RR to see for sure.

I do love the kv6 engine but hated the fact that the plenum or VIS can go wrong at anytime
