Ever since that dream I had about a ZR the other week they've really grown on me, I think that looks quality!

Performance, but maybe not if you never knew what it was like before TB's, more so the sound.

Looks ok.

But as said, Rovers and MG's are wank for parts.

As i work at a car repair garage, i know how bad it is. Other week we had a MG ZS that needed the passenger side rear door, cant get one, so we put a Honda Civic one on. Exact same car really.
