Just look at this 25k mile ZX in the ad - so retro! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Citroen-ZX-1-9-Diesel-Au...

I'd have a Volcane if there were many about still.

The 306 DTurbo's ugly cousin

My dad had 2 ZXs (as company cars). I remember them both as being horrible and st, even when I was only 5/6 or so. He hated the second one so much he gave it back early! The second one also had the keypad immobilizer thing. His next company car (a Rover 416i) was much nicer in comparison!

So much want for one of these and an old 306. Incredible condition, barely any left now.

I know. I have mega want for an old 205 or some other such simple french car. What's wrong?!

Or this. A 5 door Citroen AX GT5. What a retro interior. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CITROEN-AX-GT-5-/1319648...

I bought a MK2 MR2 to break as I needed a few bits for my track car.

It cost a princely £230 !

Apart from the sills it's in excellent shape, I took it for a blast up the road to check everything works and it drives beautifully and feels faster than 168bhp should.

With MOT'd cars under £1k it isn't worth saving (plus it's an auto) but why are these worth so little ?

Great looking, nice driving, cheap to run, mid engined, sportscar.

I like them, but it's the MOT failure rust that kills them. I assume it's just the cost vs MX5 to fix?

The new owner of this will be well chuffed!

Corners like it's on rails.

200 VI's were a good steer when I sold them new. That one looks very plain though!

Mine looked identical (but more worn out)

I loved, loved, loved that car

I think that's a standard/base one isn't it? Could you spec them with bigger alloys IIRC? I have a BRM one in storage, it hasn't seen the light of day in a while but its a fun car to drive!

It's the VVC engine, and the interior is right from memory and that was only available of the VI. Looking at some others on google they do look very plain. It really does look like a base model

I sold our showroom BRM, far more blingy than a VI that's for sure! Interior is an aquired taste from memory

It has the vi allows (unqiue to the vi) and vi interior. That's just how they looked. The 25 GTI was the 25 version of it, available before the MG ZR160 came out. That looked a bit different to the standard car. Black grille slats and hairpin alloys.

[Fast Bug]

There was a special edition (the 214iS from memory) that had the Vi alloys, the interior was unique to the Vi though, I had a British Racing Green one as a demo. And yes, the 25 GTI replaced it and looked much better. Except in Sienna Gold as the bumpers were always a different shade of gold to the body
