Biggest issues with these is the tax as said, £410 from next year. Not such an issue with the V6 but the ZS's have always had major issues with the head gasket
Edit: Click here for a pretty good forum on them

Drive very nice indeed. Little bit cramped if you're 6' 3'' and I did have to fit a rack on an 05 plate model earlier this year because it was leaking.

No it's not, it's English, it's only small and it makes 180 bhp.
Sounds nice, drives well and is rapid for a factory car.

The v8 is a ford job. V6 is the KV6 (two 3 cyl K series together). Not as prone to head gasket going though. Sound very good in the power band.
