Title: Semi Retired Miggy....... is listed on Ebay
Post by: Nemesis on 26 June 2009, 16:24:55
I just thought I'd let everyone know that my much loved Miggy is up for sale on Ebay, the misses is giving me soooooo much grief for not getting of it.I don't have enough posts to list it here for sale and if I'm not allowed to do this then I'm sorry! But if I am allowed then go take a look, it needs to go to a loving home! Cheers all..... Nem........

Looks a nice tidy car.

I'd be interested to know - how does the Siggy compare with the Miggy?!?

Hi, here is a paste of a reply to a pm asking the same thing! "the Signum is a rapid little bestie, it torque steers like a pig and it's noisier than the Miggy, theres way too much cheap plastic and some bits have fallen off in the interior, it's a harder ride but it does have cruise so the journey requires a little less effort, the seat on the drivers side is never where I left it as regards how high I set it.. The stereo shuts down with a massive pop when it gets hot then restarts in the quiet mode...... the Miggy is a 2.6 V6 Ecotec and returns about 27 to 31Mpg the Signum is the 3.2 V6 Ecotec and has returned 36Mpg (but I was driving like a priest) typicaly it returns 29 to 33Mpg. ..... other than that it's a lovely car. I only bought the Signum because it was soooooo cheap! If you live near Bromsgrove or Maldon in Essex (I work down there) feel free to come take a look and maybe a test drive. Does that answer all your questions?

OOOOOO yeah the service intervals are way better for the cambelt on the Signum 80K woohoo !!!

I wouldn't! 40K for any VX cambelt no matter what the service book says.

Am I right in saying that if the cambelt and tensioner were fitted by a Vx Dealership and it's a genuine article and it go's pop at less that the recommended interval I would have grounds for a complaint?

Or is that just a can of worms that I shouldn't open?
