    no its a good car,the only down side to the veccy c is its headlights or lack of them, first thing you need to do is bin the standard bulbs and get a hid kit so you can see where your going at night, good luck

    thats probably why they made the face lift, because of the pre face lifts dodgy lights

    Assuming you are talking about a petrol make sure the oil has been changed when it should as they are chain driven.

    Well i bought it so i guess ill be on here a bit from now on! Yes its the petrol 2.2 and it got full main dealer history so belt/chain has been done. It must be better than my alfa which ive traded in either way!

    The chain wont have been done by the dealer as its not needed until 100k, but its always safer to get it done before. The lump is good and strong with only the chain and tensioners being a suspect point.
