Nothing wrong with them, but no doubt there will be someone along soon saying this and that breaks and fails!

I have a 2008 Elite estate 150 CDTi and love it as the daily commuter/dog wagon and family car. It goes well, cruises nicely with its 6 speed box. Truth be told I was looking at the 2.8T but sense got the better of me

The ZS is my toy.

A map is on the cards for mine when I have finished the zed. Plus a subtle body kit to sharpen the lines.

Forgot to say the remap puts it in the same figures as the 3.0 CDTi V6.

I was gonna go down the dtuk box route but been a geek and reading up on everything i read that the tuning boxes would produce about 200hp but they just tell the ecu the car needs more fuel and air meaning the head temp would be very hot and cause problems in time so i went the safest route nice map more mpg getting 58-60 on a run and power is their when needed even in 6th

so does it have auto headlights and windscreen wipers. i know they removed a lot off the later editions too save money. Nice motors but the engines can be a ****** when they fail and costly too fix.
