I have driven a 105, 120 and the 160 version. All where utter shit IMO. At the time I owned a VTS and it shat over all of them. The handling was simply terrible and rolled like a fucker compared to my saxo.
Also the interior in the MG's is so drab and cheaply made its unreal.
Not saying saxo's are amazing cars, but they are better than ZR's IMO.
I would have a saxo over one anyday.

Nope, my VTS had full de-cat exhaust but standard suspension. All of the MG's I drove had various modifications and were not standard. I didn't like them at all.
The 160 gave me a run for my money, but my sax was still faster.
O and this wasn't on the street either, it was on track last June.
I tell you what, you buy a ZR and ill buy a VTS then we can see which is better on the track.
