yes ZR or buy a Rover 200 mk3 with a 2.0 litre turbo! they are very under-rated cars if u ask me....105bhp outa 1.4 16v.....will pish over most things as my mate has shown me on many occasions in his!

You dont have to worry about the milage thou bud...
As long as its got good service history it will go on and on..
Not like french cars that die at 100k..
There are many examples on US forum's of Honda VTECs with 200k+ on the original engine and box, and still pulling high numbers on the rollers

Rover 200Vi is a real wolf in sheeps clothing and along with the ZR160 it is the only Rover (MG whatever  ) worth considering. Faster than a few hot hatches on the list and it handles. Its faster than a VTS, i know
