I was rudely reminded today of an issue I discovered the first day I had my mk 1 ZS over 3 years ago.
Parked on a hill, I pressed the go button, waited for the gong, selected R and took my foot off the brake, and the car rolled forwards. Jammed on the brake, tried again, same problem. Turned off, on again, same problem. Eventually I realised that the drivers door was not properly latched shut, and that was the problem. Now that is a safety issue! It should not be possible for the car to let the brake off if it is not going to work properly. Today, I had the same problem, and only realised after 3 attempts to start off. If MG are reading this - SORT IT!
