    Vehicle : Insignia

    Trim : Elite

    Engine : 1.6D

    Year : 2018

    Mileage : 1 hundred

    Default Really sad day!

    Sold our 16 year old caravan, had it since new, collected the new van, finalised the deal where son in law burns his Honda and becomes a Vec C owner.

    This means I have a new caravan and no vectra!

    I will stay around to annoy @Woody and @Dog_Book and others but my little 120 is no longer mine!


    Take care all.

    Vehicle : Vectra C 3.2 Elite Estate Auto Facelifted

    OMG Wendy,

    Sorry to hear that your day to day interest through owning a Vectra-C may now dwindle

    Hope not though fella, does an ARO need to drive a Vec-C / Signum ?

    Need to check and get some meets organised PDQ , preferably another nice Fix It / Fit It / Pizza / BBQ at @adam.heath.7169 place again, or of course your place Wendy, (a bit nearer for me ), having said that, the Club really does benefit from combining "Social" meets with "Useful Repair / Refit / Retrofit" meets ....

    Let's Bring Those Meets On Again, all over again, but even better this Summer in 2016


    Any "excuse" for a PARTY here on Vectra-C.com has got to be good

    I will still be here annoying whoever I can.

    The deal with the F*RD means that I'm only paying for the miles I drive at 74 mpg which even driven carefully the Vectra can't match. The Mondeo can't either but that's how they calculate the mileage.

    SWMBO is happy with her car and really doesn't want the Vec, meaning I either get rid of it or keep it just for the odd blast now and again. Logistically 3 cars are a nightmare but 4 on the drive.......nooooooo!

    It was bad enough seeing the caravan driven out on a low loader. I'm dreading the day the Vec actually goes but it is staying in the family, although that may make it worse.

    It wasn't just trying to keep up with me that done this mate... You just wanted to show that mini owner who's boss. But in fairness she was a lunatic lol
    Another meet would be good though
