Title: My astra ticked over 50,000 miles today
Post by: STEMO on 29 May 2019, 19:43:50
It had 20,000 on it when I bought it 20 months ago. Don't know where the fick I've been.  ;D
30,000 miles, two MOT's, two services, four tyres. I'm happy with that.

Time to hand you licence in if your alzheimer's is that bad Uncle Stemo  ;D

at that rate of mileage (1500 per month), in 3 years your astra will be worn out,need expensive repair, time to sell to Terry  ;D

I've decided to keep this one until I properly kill it, I've wasted enough money unnecessarily changing cars. If only Gixer had hung around long enough to hear me say that.

Don't know what giffer spec means, but it's a 2014 2.0 diesel elite estate.

In Autocar magazine today a survey taken in April asked people what type of car they would buy next.

The result.....

52% Petrol
34% Hybrid/Electric
14% Derv. :y

There is no other side, or I'd be haunted daily by all the people I've driven to an early grave.
And those I've murdered.

As you don't strike me as a petrol head or car nut would you consider a 'leccy' car?.

It might just work if you have a home charger and never go further than the corner shop. :)

I’ve owned an Astra g bi fuel 1.6 16v estate which I Frankensteined with second hand gas injectors from some Daewoo or other😂 I’ve had it five years and bought it on 65 000 it’s 135 000 now still going strong and gives me over 300 miles for £25  not trying. Best car I’ve ever had.
