MG ZS (2001-2005) Review

Category: Hot Hatchbacks 2.5 out of 5

Summary of the MG ZS (2001-2005)

Price Range: No data available

Assets

Entertaining and forgiving handling, smooth V6, comfortable ride, fair value

Drawbacks

Messy, dated dashboard, poor rear room, ageing looks

Verdict

Unexpectedly capable, with much to offer if you can live with its flaws

Review

Safety and Security3 out of 5

Being old, the ZS misses the latest technology, such as sidebags and headbags, but you do get twin front bags. There's no NCAP rating - we'd expect no more than a middling performance at best. Thief-proofing is reasonably good, however.
