    Default 3.2 V6

    Well i picked up my 3.2 V6 Elite today and i only have one word to say about this car.......
    OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!

    I didn't quite realise just how nice this car is to drive before i bought it. Its quite happy to totter along at 30 and you wouldn't even think the engine was running, then when you want to, floor it and it goes like stink!!!
    The fuel needle is fairly dropping, but probably no more than i expected.

    So, if anyone is pondering over getting one of these...go for it. I cant wait till the morning to go for another drive.

    I'll post piccys at the weekend. I know its the law.

    fun isn't it.

    One of my favourites on a B road near me is to come out of the 30 stretch at 30, with the box in semi-auto in second, there's a decent straight then at national limit, so I floor it and use the semi mode to nudge up the gears.

    It's about the only time I use the semi auto function but it makes me smile every time.

    Hopefully it'll be worth the wait. I spent today fitting my wheels, chrome mirrors and Xenons (as purchased as part of Vectra-c.com group buy) so i want to get it right before posting pics.
    One good thing about the MPG is.....I'm gonna gather up a fortune in nectar points!!
