Why the forgotten MG Z car now looks a classic car bargain
Hopefully it hasn’t escaped your attention that the fast MG is a thing again. No doubt the debate around the merits of cars likeand the 435hp 4 XPower will continue for a long while yet, but it’s hard to dispute that the car world is more interesting with another sports car and loopy hot hatch in it. It would be a nice hook to say that the return of the performance MG has encouraged the yearning for an old one, but, in truth, not many days go past without thinking of the MG Z cars.
Then there’s the ZS, the MG-ified Rover that wasn’t all that popular in its day. Pity. It had the V6 in its favour, plus a decent chassis and even the glamour of being associated with the Team Atomic Kitten touring car outfit , but the ZS just looked a bit dowdy. Even in yellow, even with the spoiler. And image matters for a hot hatch. At a time of rivals like the first UK Honda Civic Type R and smart, contemporary Ford Focus ST170, the ZS just wasn’t cool.
