Post by: 2boxerdogs on 20 July 2011, 16:11:06

 :yWent to the dealership today for some touch in paint, whilst there met the 1st owner of my 2.6CDX. He told me that he traded it in last August for a new diesel Insignia they allowed him £3,000 on the trade in ,he reckons the mig gave a much better ride than the Insignia & his wife said she wished they had kept it, they even compilmented me on how nice it looked & how it had been so reliable nice to know that eh!!

that would be a nice experience meeting the previous owner, and on top getting a few compliments. All the elbow grease has paid off. Nice one! :y
