Saw a silver insignia in St Helens today on the retail park car park. They are HUGE ! very nice shape, really curved roof line, huge boot, loads of leg room. Until I was close up I thought it was a Merc. Had a chat with the owner, he got it yesterday - launch day. He has VX discount having worked for them and now retired, he paid .... £14,000

WOW it was a classy car for that kind of money. 2.0 CDTI / 160 bhp

I like my small Astra sporthatch, but for that kind of money I could raid the savings maybe ....

Saw one in North London yesterday, did not like the size of the rear window, very small with lots of black surround much smaller than the Vec C, don't think it looks big though but there again I don't consider the Vec C big only a mid size car if that. Rolls Royce/Bentley are big.
