    Talking Re-cycling a Vectra

    How many parts (not new) do you have from another Vectra? A lot of us swap bits & pieces from other cars so in our own way we do seem to be doing our little bit for the planet. A pole would not work as things change constantly so maybe a figure.
    It’s surprising how they add up I have 10 .............

    I've got a few things I've taken between cars, especially as I went through so many Veccy B's... It was mainly wheels and tyres, the LCD screen, and any other smaller bits that weren't right on the new one...

    Will be taking my VXR steering wheel from my current Vectra, and depending on whether it gets traded in or sold on here etc will depend on what else I keep, as hopefully the trim level I get will be high enough for most of it all to already be fitted...

    I think this is the thing your expectations of trim from what you have to what you get next time is somewhat disapointing, oh just thought of another thing so now I am up to 13 (a pair or a set of things counts as 1) ....
