You dont get much of a car with these, 2 of my mates had them, all full of problems from day one, theyre made as cheap as they possibly can be! even to the extent of
NO:
ABS
Central locking
Electric windows
Air Con
i could go on and on, the discs on them arent even vented either iirc.
i wouldnt even look at one, as said all they are is a Rover 25 with a bodykit, stiffer springs and some leather.
one of my mates sold his and bought a Mk3 astra GSi and the other wrote his off into a ford maverick

I wanted one and looked at many but coulnt put me self and the cash together due to 2003 cars with no electric windows, signs of headgasket on some cars and there stupid interior.
Looks nice thought on the outside which is while i wanted one. I would of been in one today if it didnt sell ont he drive up there though 
It was yellow and diesel....

depends if you want a car for a track or an everyday car with a hint of luxury which alot of people are under the impression these have but they dont! i know they do the Plus model with the electrics but the chances of them lasting a decent amount of while is very slim!

1.4 are 105
1.8 are 120
1.8 VVC (like mine) are 160
that does seem wildly overpriced! i paid almost half that for mine with 10k more on the clock and three yrs older in the most popular colour.
i cant comment on the "+" trim but my ZR does have all of the below

i am sure you'll find some trims will have the above, at least some of them. although Mike Z20LET is right the discs arent vented mattk m mine as genuine leather
