Seriously Declan, if you're looking for one you may as well try the usual places, autotrader, ebay. The guys on here dont part with their cars very often and you certainly wouldn't be able to talk them down on price ;)

Well i am after a 2 or 2.2 cdx, auto preferably facelift, i did debate diesel but they dont sound so great, i need a auto, and like toys, but dont want to pay loads on insurance, and bad fuel economy, especially as the drunk driver that wrote my vectra off, had no insurance or full license, so i am loosing no claims, so v6 is a no go, which seems to really curb what i have found on ebay and autotrader..

Getting back on to the original thread subject..... >:(

They may be able to help.

Facelift 2.2 is common enough. You could try ebay. Just ask advice if you find an interesting one

You could try an lpg converted 2.5V6?

Also, shop around on insurance, the quotes can vary massively.

If you want to post a wanted ad, simply put it on here and one of us will move it to the correct area. :)
