    Default Vectra going .... going .... gone ....

    Hey guys and gals

    After doing a full service and fixing a few faults on the Veccy last week, it's decided it now needs a new clutch, flywheel, starter motor, battery, and steering rack

    Been looking at smaller cars for a while, as my daily commute is only 2 miles now, so a CDTi is NOT the car to use for this.

    SO, next week (Monday hopefully) will see the Vectra going, and being replaced with a brand new Corsa. Deal's been done and I got a cool £1750 for my Veccy as a trade-in. Not bad with all the faults, and 137k miles on the clock. Although it has a full service history.

    I've owned 3 Vectra's over the last 4 years and they have been the most reliable car I've owned. Let's hope the Corsa follows suit, although with a 10 year / 100,000 mile warranty, it should be fine

    Deffo going to stick around on here though

    Bit of a downgrade, but due to my commute it's not worth a bigger engine motor now
