    Default loving it....

    Ok so I've driven my vectra Sri 150 diseasel about 60 miles si far and I'm loving it, coming from a rattly old pug 206 the vectra feels like a tank everything is solid.
    It corners well (not pushed it) and gives you an almighty kick up the arse when you need it, however.....

    Reversing without being able to see the arse end takes some getting used to/judging as it's a fair old blind spot and the fact they put cup holders in the back but a silly empty box in the front niggles me.

    Stuck my fiat egr blanking plate in today, stuck my error free led sidelights in and did the simple air box mod today

    Yeah it's semi blanked until I can afford a remap then it'll be full blank and mapped out. Stashed some aluminum at work so i can knock up a fresh plate whenever ;-)

    I sense rear parking sensors mod then, and For around 20 quid, there Well worth the investment, and easy to do too.

    Sounds all good, except the cornering. Try pushing it see what happens, double decker buses handle better than a vec lol.
    Apart from that a vec was a very good choice, enjoy mate.

    Get some coilovers totally transforms the. Way it goes round corners and roundabouts are even better
    And yes reversing is a bit of a pain took me a few week to work out the distance
