I've only had 3 cars in my time so far, the second of those was a humble MG ZR. (The tarted up older brother of the Rover 25!)
I replaced it this year with a lovely 3 series Msport which is better in every way...on paper, but I really miss the ZR.
It was loud, very shiny, low and is by far the best handling car I have ever driven, and I've been fortunate enough to drive some lovely cars!
I had it 4 years and it cost me roughly £2900 including everything but petrol over that time. It might be hard to believe, but - What a car....what a car!!
