Whatever is on the shelves of a supermarket or other shop is what usually goes in there. i don't think I've ever bought the so called quality stuff and the screen is clean enough after i've given the wipers a quick blast..

I've never bothered to fill the oil filter on any car i've ever done and found no problems at all with oil starvation.

Back in 2012 we had a new insignia sri estate and it was a pain in the arse to be honest as no matter how long I kept the revs up driving etc it would constantly be regenerating no matter how hard I drove it. and in the end was glad to take it back to the dealer and hand them the keys.

Having removed the sill covers yesterday to be pleasantly surprised at how much of the sills are still there. today I removed the rear seat base and nearside back rest along with the belt mounts to supposedly clear the way for the magical welder to do its job. although I still haven't decided whether I want to attempt the welding or get some goon to slap patches all over it..

My sisters astra just passed with its nearside mirror cover missing. but it did fail on the flexi joint in the exhaust and both track rods had excessive play .

Took it to a garage to ask how much it would be to weld up the ventilated chassis rails etc. to be told it would cost £2-300 minimum.

Well it seems that the dealer thought it worth the bother and has had the 99 elite estate "repaired" and it now has an mot for another year.. but just how well was the work done??.

Far from a bad person Ron. it proves that you have more common sense than the knobs that run the asylum.

I've still got the contitech timing belt kit I bought for the 3.2. will it go straight onto a 2.5 or is there some subtle difference between the parts.

I was tempted by this car originally but wondered what would be wrong with it and whether it would be expensive to fix..

Driven it a few miles and wondered when the speedo would come back to life and when the abs and traction control lights would go out..

You've forgot to mention the cracked and rotten chassis rails too.

There's something wrong with the 99 elite estate on ebay for £1495 at the moment. check out its recent MOT results..

Well Jons switch arrived and I clipped it into the dash and guess what it popped just like the first one. can anyone else suggest where to look for the problem as I've already knackered two switches and its getting rather expensive.

I'll even help with the cull if you want as there's a house full of filth next door to me that really needs removing from the planet.
