So do I.

I've had so many careless or downright spiteful cnuts open their doors into the side of my cars over the years :mad:

That’s what a girlfriend for, I don’t park I just get her to jump out but it always ends in disappointment and a bigger bill!

I looked at getting a MG ZT-T before the scooby, nice bit of kit 2.5 lt v6. And not alot of £££

If I told my girlfriend to go do the shopping while I sit in the car is get a smack In the nose :p

Hate car park dings, spent about £90 in the last year getting them removed, at £30 a time :@

Did they not make a 260hp edition? Wish they put that engine in the ZS instead of the 180 HP lump!

Yeh, it was a 4.5 v8 mustang lump. You can imagine the sound.

I test drove one once, was quick ish for the cash but the insurance put me off, group 17 i think for a Rover... dont think so!

daveyorks 12 June 2013 01:37 PM

i was at auction last week and a 60,000.... 2004 went for about £700.a lot of car for little money but i wouldnt have one!

ditchmyster 12 June 2013 02:16 PM

I park like that too.:D

As for the Z series Rovers, don't write any of them off, very capable cars and cheap as chips to buy and run, also don't believe all the head gasket problems, it's usually the inlet manifold gasket or the water pump.;)

As for the ZS same chassis as the honda DC5.;)

My dad owned 1 for 2 years about 5 years ago got rid of just before I passed my diving test, but I spent about 2 months driving around learning in it!

It was actually a really good car, the sound from the V6 as well was sweet :D pretty damn rapid too!!

I can image the sound of that mustang lump!! Never seen or heard one though :(

Yeah my dad had the ZS 180 which was the 45 with the 2.5 v6 engine, I've never seen a zt 260 before!

Oh And thank you! That's good parking for me! If I have to go Asda on a Saturday ill park in the middle of 4 bays!! Ha!

Cpt Jack Sparrow 12 June 2013 02:45 PM
