Nope, no 2.2s in 1999. The 2.2 didn't get released until Sept 2000 when the 2.0 was discontinued.

Lovely standard, unmolested Zed with a very clean interior by the looks of things. Nice to see the original wheels on a Zed too! :P In your first post, you mentioned that you didn't know thew colour - its Montreal Blue. Just lose the air freshner and it'll be perfect! :head: Good luck with the car.....

It's a long shot I know but anyone got the above for sale? I could possibly live with with a black one in the interim before I'd get it to the paintshop.

1.9 is a good strong, torquey engine that likes revs and pulls well whilst returning good mpg. The 2.0 is the smallest engine capacity in the 6 cylinder lineup. I had one, and loved it. It was quick enough with creamy smooth power delivery and a gorgeous exhaust note. The 2.2 is regarded by many on ...

I would just get rid of the 2.8 and buy an ///M. That makes much more sense to me. Does it have to be an S54? There are lots more S50s out there and there isn't much between the two. Plus the S50 is known to be the more tunable engine - if you are interested in remapping and other engine related mods.
