A very capable car with superb handling. Diesel engine is noisy when cold but quiet when warmed up. Very quick in the gears, steers and handles really really well. Climate control works well. A great car - no faults and acceptable quality throughout.

The ZS180 is one of the most underrated cars around. Unbeatable performance per pound. Excellent handling, good looks (although not from some angles). At the prices quoted on this site they are an absolute bargain. Don't believe all the rubbish about poor MG/Rover quality. They are no worse than the BMW's people seem to be obsessed with.

I own a 05MY ZS180 and as a car it is a good reliable vehicle. The V6 doesn't need hard revving to get the car going, plus the it's economical when in the town or city, and especially out on the motorway/A roads - this is where this V6 belongs. A good driver's car, and with the facelift a very good second-hand buy.

Underperforms in comparison with other cars I have driven. A good ride but watch wet weather as the back end is a bit lively. Does look the business although inside spec is a bit cheap looking.
