First time poster here so hi to all.
I previously had an 04 CDXi as a company car and loved the whole experience - well fitted and a blast to drive. Had it for 2 years and did 100,000kms before having to churn it under the company's lease set-up. Sadly I replaced it with the top of the range 06 Turbo Subaru Forester and its never quite measured up to the Vectra.
Anyways my job situ is changing and I need to source another car. Been looking at a range of new and used cars and noted that used CDXi's are going for very good prices here in Oz and thought I could do worse than to grab another one as a simple and low cost solution - as they say better the devil you know ?!?!
My question is ultimately what is everyone's experience with the V6 3.2 Vectra (of various global iterations) doing higher kilometers - as my previous one was a company car I never paid attention to servicing costs and alike, just told them to fix it
Obviously I'd be looking carefully at service history, doing the appropriate pre-purchase inspections and alike on any car I bought but I'd expect to have this car for 2 years tops and there's a number of very well priced CDXi in the 60,000-90,000kms bracket so I'd expect to be busting the 100,000km barrier during my ownership if I bought one of these.
Your ideas, experiences and input on the suitability of them as a used car and anything specifically to be aware of are greatly appreciated.
Ben...
