Stuff all the techi talk, newer vectras are dull & uninspiring to look at & drive. Ok if you want a family/repmobile but no one could ever love it.

LOL, they can be fun, esp with powerful engines, they definately have a unique personality...  ...and will kill you Grin

Trouble is now that b@stard new tax rate for cars, makes the big 3.2s and the 2.6 questionable.

Paying £450 a year to tax a car thats worth about £1k is getting pointless.

Thats whats making me look towards big diesels, VeccyC 3.0 CDTI, i really like the new shape BMW 530d Sport.


I thought the back dating to 2001 had been binned and it was only 2006 onwards hit by the mega tax Undecided Undecided Undecided

If thats the case maybe i can take another look at supercharged XJ's  Cheesy

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine
