No probably lucky I didn't as started my apprenticeship in 2000
I was going to work at the local dealership in Bedford but that was just before they closed as the garage I was at one of the main cars we did was MG/Rovers all tho at the time wasn't into them. My workshop Manger was he had a MK1 ZS 180 new then got the MK2 ZS 180 new just before they went bust. Was quite funny because I had a ST24 V6 Mondeo when he got the first 180 and always laughed as our trip home involved a small blast on motorway and he was faster but just as he got the MK2 I got a ST220 Mondeo which was a fair bit quicker than the ZS
the reason I remember his MK2 ZS is because it had to go back to be sprayed under warranty because you could see the base coat if paint through the top coat of black. When it was being done Rover went under while was at bodyshop so ended up having to pay I believe half or wasn't getting car back
