Vectra Elite Estate doing good post-Omega service but still not as nice to sit in.

One last Omega on the drive, one Corsa on the lawn...maybe they'll go to a good home before too long!

So what do you think I failed on?  :-?

It wasn't tyres as I has 2 fitted before the test - 225/55/16v Pirelli P7 before you ask at £81 inc each  ::)

I'll give you a clue - trade cost to replace with genuine Vx parts £229  :o

If engine cleanliness was covered by the MOT it certainly wouldn't be that :D

As I had wishbones last year........somehow Mark nailed it first go  :o

I asked Vx to recheck the price as I only wanted them supplied, not fitted with a complimentary car wash  :-/

"That is the price Sir, with full discount and you'll find it's very competitive" said the unhumerous parts monkey.

In the end I had the MOT garage supply and fit them........

Total bill £173 inc MOT, parts, labour and VAT  :y

Alhough I'm sure they only went cos I read on hear about failing springs last week.........can someone win the lottery soon please  ;)
