    Default Another newbie

    Hello everyone, I've just upgraded to a Vectra C, not the first veccy I've owned, I had a B a couple of years ago which died on me sadly... For some reason I replaced it with a F**d. I hope you won't hold that against me! It was a moment of madness for which I am truly sorry :P

    Back in the fold now with a 1.8 Elite and already looking for info on how best to personalise it so I will likely see some of you around the forums.

    Paul.

    I'll have to take some pictures asap, not able to at the moment as I've bought the Vectra from a friend who doesn't get her new car until the weekend and then wants to get the vectra checked, valeted and the leather nourished before I pick it up.

    As for my user name, thats just the story of my life . My B siezed up due to a knackered oil pump. I still have it parked up at work, its a 2.5 V6 Arctic. I did toy with dropping the crank and doing the bottom end but decided it's value and the cost to repair didn't make sense. Though if anyone is close enough and needs some spares... !?

    '99, S reg silver 4 door saloon, looking a bit green around the edges as it,s been standing so long. S/S cat back exhaust with single exit 6x4 oval tail pipe, k&n, 17" double spoke BK alloys. loved it but don't have the time and space to play about with it, my weekend pocket rocket is out of storage and being prep'd for the summer... So many cars, so little time
