I thought this was yours :( I brought my 220 in a similar state and managed to get it back up to scratch as a little project. Hopefully someone with the same enthusiasm will do the same to your coupe. Yerh I have to pick my battles (projects) with Wife and child. A Pug 206 and a MG ZS are plenty.

Hey all, I am now ready to sell my KV6 engine removed from a MG ZS 180 in favour of a T16 Turbo engine which has been mounted. The KV6 has aprox 100k miles on it, but the last 30k miles I owned it, it was run exclusively on Shell Vpower Nitro fuel and had a quiet inlet manifold. The engine contains:...

Forgot about the clutch bearing, so all rebuilt only to press the clutch pedal once and it do nothing

Its amazing how quick you can strip it down again once you've only finished learning where everything goes!

When I first bought my MG ZS 180 about 3-4years ago, the back box shortly after needed replacing. Same time as the wifes 206 back box too. Hers was £40 I was quote £140, so at the time I was short on pennies so when to a exhaust shop and asked them to fit a straight through pipe. Only cost £20. Tis ...

You deserve better luck with this for saving it, I hope you get it. If you relist it on eBay perhaps find out how much an LPG conversion would be and if its not too much mention it in the add? LPG is no small matter. Researched it a few months ago. There are places that will do it for £800 in one d...

Relisted and I've also fixed the inlet manifold, so sounding much smoother and quieter! Updated original post!

Evening all, A too good of an opportunity arrived the other week to save a MG ZS 180 as a pal was going to scrap her as she was SORN'd and on the road requiring an MOT. So rather than the scrap yard I got her cleaned up and MOT'd for 12months ready for a good home. MG ZS 180 107k miles with Powerflo...

Wide open throttle, generally comes up when talking about lamda sensor(s) and how they go to a closed loop sensor reading when on wide open throttle (WOT) so you could argue if you want a potentially better mapping to run just off full throttle to still be on "open loop" allowing the car e...

I always wanted to be a City Bike Courier. It looked like a awesome job, mixing extreme sports and getting paid for it.

As other say, I'm both, I ride into work daily when Im on a monthly rotation which invovles just office work every 3months. The other months I drive.

Awesome, get any snaps or footage yourself? I remember seeing alot of the MG TF that day and such a mixed bag of cars. Lots of super 7 style and fun sitting on the tail of a Noble.
