Hey, posted to you on the MG ZR forum the other day.
Didn't realise yours was a 1.4, how do you find it?
Can't decide wether a 1.4, 1.8 120 or 160 is best. Insurance is dirt cheap on the 1.4.

Do they really handle well?

Need to have a go in one.

Hi mate, hows it goin?!

They handle well mate and are good fun to drive. If youre used to having power then a 1.4 might leave you feeling a bit disappointed.

Theyre damn quick for a stock 1.4 though dont get me wrong. If insurance is dirt cheap too then its gotta be worth thinking about. You can certainly feel a pull after 4000 revs.

Just good fun and cheap as chips to run and own. :cool:

Paying £237 a month at the moment for insurance lol, so it'd be nice to spend on something else.

I really miss the handling of my Mini, I just hope the ZR is as good as people say.

It handles well, there are better handlers though. My mates clio 172 is probably a better all rounder. I just like the ZR cos it almost feels as though you have to grab it by the scruff of the neck and bully it. :undecided: :grin:

I pay £290 insurance for me and the mrs  :laugh:

Dont listen to the haters anyway mate. Theyve got so much character, are great fun, fully British made and are well focussed cars.
