your trading in a Y plate GLS? why bother upgrading? CD does not have that much extra, infact naff all.

Unless your GLS has the millage of the USS Enterprise, i'd keep your current one and retro fit any extras you want.

Having a 2.2 I would say, bluehawk, that if you can stretch to a V6 - that's the way to go. :y

The 4 pot just doesn't cut it :(

Unless you're getting a deal, the asking price might be a bit strong as well ;) ;)

I think you should keep looking and seek a better deal elsewhere as for £2k you can get alot of Omega. I would also recommend going for a v6 if you can since the difference in economy is negligible but it is better suited to a "big" car. And go for at least a cdx. Good luck.

And how do you know the replacement does not need discs too?

Lot of money to spend just because of a few minor jobs  :-/

Just seen a 2000 Y Black 2.6 CDX Auto with just 35K on autotrader at £1800 ONO, sounds a better buy.
