    Vehicle : Vectra Estate

    Trim : SRI

    Engine : CDTI 150 (Z19 DTH)

    Year : 2008

    Mileage : 100k

    Default Carlton GSI

    Gents,

    I have the chance at a GSI Carlton. Will buy to sell on - not to keep...

    Anyone owned one here... My Dad had one when I was a lad and I loved it then. Never actually driven one... I've driven (bought to sell) a GSI Cav / Astra , GTE Astra, and a Calibra turbo, but never a Carlton.

    Missus had a 2.0 Carlton way back, which was a good car actually only VERY underpowered - just never driven a GSI carlton.

    Its a 91 car - 89k on the clock and a digi dash.. all electrics working and its rust free...

    Any initial thoughts..

    BTW - I am literally going to have to pay next to nothing

    Only if its as good as he makes out... Don't want to be stuck with it that's the trouble..

    Just trying to gauge what a 91 black manual GSI would go for, very good nick, 89k, rust free (apparently), digi dash etc.
