I'm out in mine today, dropped into the parent's house to steal some food and coffee - then off for a nice evening drive.

Lovely stiff chassis, roaring V6 and quite low weight. I love my 75s and ZTs, but I also adore my 180.
Its the one car I am really tempted to get. Had a ZS 120 and loved it and currently have a ZR 120 which is just great fun. Sounds like the 180 is the best blend of both?

It is, but there's a few parts you can't get - which make ownership a bit harder than the 120.
The two that come to mind are radiators (I know!) and the top radiator hose - along with some power steering pipes etc.

I've never had a problem personally (we're working on radiators) but something to bear in mind.
Mine made 193.4BHP on a recent dyno, with just induction and exhaust mods.
