Here are some picutres for you guys to scruitinise she is a 2010 on a 10 160BHp version alot of Modifying todo but will be in short burst as budget is somehwat strecthed at the minute

But quite a simple list compared to my Miggy

* A set of Genuine Mats
* A set of 19" Elite Alloy Wheels
* Front Foglights and Genuine Chrome Foglight Surrounds

Must admit, looking more and more at those. Quite cheap now, even more so with Facelifted version soon to be released.

60+ mpg from the manual diesels, forums look "ok" not as good as here but still good. I'd be able to continue DIY service on them I suspect, which would save a lot of dosh.

That'll be upto 100k and only if Network Q

As for cost, anything over £7k would expensive given spec/mileage

They start at £4300 on Autotrader...

Sam Burton · « **Reply #6 on:** 15 June 2013, 12:51:15 »

I told them that I needed a warrantee that is more than 100,000 miles so they done me a deal with this unlimited mileage package over 3 years

05omegav6 · « **Reply #7 on:** 15 June 2013, 12:52:30 »

Good luck with the small print on that

As Al says, good luck with any claims on that. No doubt when you are at 120k and something fails they will just ticket against "general wear"

Within 3 years you expect things to last, but at 7 years with 74k already on it, that warranty is going to be hard to claim against.

hoody · « **Reply #14 on:** 15 June 2013, 21:25:24 »

Looks a nice one,the price of clutch/dmf really puts me off them though.

PAULCDX · « **Reply #15 on:** 15 June 2013, 21:51:27 »

Like the look of these Sam, I may have one in the years ahead

Glad your Miggy will stay on the OOF,

Best wishes Paul

Driving a 62 plate SRi Insignia courtesy of the RAC Legal team (whilst they sort out my claim) after my Omega was written off last month.
Very nice. I may consider one at some point.
Good luck with your one.

I suspect I could still leave you in the rear view mirror as soon as anything other than a clear, straight road presented itself

TheBoy · « **Reply #31 on:** 29 July 2013, 17:57:00 »

Its a capable enough car for what it is, just a dull, uninspiring drive.

In France, last year, where we were staying there were some utterly fantastic mountainous driving roads, mostly empty as well. My mate was in his Morgan, I was in the Insignia, and we had fun. *BUT* it never gave me that excitment.
