    Hi people,
    My name's Peter and live in Wassenaar, a village on the other side of the pond.
    Also registered on Xpower, MG-Rover.org, themgzs but my home base is ZSCentral.com Very Happy
    Here are some pictures of my ZS.
    I had it converted to a ZS 160 VVC in December last year and it drives just great.

    Your latest ZS is a great-looking car, Pete.

    A 160 VVC? Never heard of that in a ZS. Is it the engine from the ZR 160?

    (PS I know a bekerhouder is a cupholder and worth three Dutch Asterix books, so I imagine an "Ontheffingshouder" is the holder of some kind of parking permit., so that the sign says "no parking except permit holders". Alternatively, it says "beware of the elephants". Laughing I can sell you some elephant-repellent spray, brand name WD40. I can prove it works because I spray it on the garden and I get no elephants!

    LOL, I know WD40 works against elephants. I got it in the booth and haven't seen any pachyderms there yet Laughing

    Yes, the engine is from a ZR160, at least the head is. Last October I got offered a revised ZR160 cylinder head including it's ECU. After some thought I got it fit last December Cool
    Ads another 40 horses so the performance of the Zed has much increased.
