Well it seems to be a done deal.....
Well it seems to be a done deal.....
they have a 2006 1.9cdti SRI [150] 5 door on 84k miles, with full XP bodykit and 17" alloys, Royal Blue (almost black tbh)
insurance works out to be £600 cheaper than the lex, that includes 3 free modifications (remap/HID/Springs)
finance is £36 a month better
MPG on book is 50mpg, all owners and various searches indicate 42mpg+ even when booting it (my lex only does 39mpg driving nicely
so saving total of around £120-£140 a month,
there gunna swap my parrot kit over for free and look to change cars again in 18 months
cant say no really (well i can but i dont want to!)

Thought you were getting something German? Have no experience of vauxhalls but the astras with the VXR kit do look quite cool
