    Default Vectra is going

    Well, I've only had it for 15 months, and I've never been truley happy with it, so done a deal at the weekend on a 2006 Astra VXR.

    Will be sad to see it go, as I've put a lot of effort into the Vectra, but it's just not for me unfortunately.

    I don't do enough miles to warrent a diesel (done 10,000 miles in 15 months, and I've never enjoyed driving it, due to being cautious of of flywheel packing up, or the inlet manifold.

    Cheers everyone, I really wanted to enjoy the Vectra, but just couldn't get along with it. I think it was mainly the Diesel part, as I found it not very good on all the short trips I do.

    Pics of the VXR to follow when I collect it
