Im on the hunt for a different car  Already in the process of doing a deal .... its a vauxhall but not omega or astra ... Just cant get on with the car i have at the minute , my fault i know but things i overlooked when buying the pug , one in particular was no power steering and im finding it hard going fighting the steering every turn  That and the road noise 
Anyways the bloke will take my pug part ex so here's hoping  Hope im doing the right thing , probably not but hey ho

Ok mate cheers , the deal is off on the car i was looking at "vectra" not the new shape . Goin to advertise mine rather than part ex as it gives me more buying power with cash  Ive owned 3 vectras so know them inside out . Not had an auto so no idea how they fare ? So looking at vectra B

VECTRA

Last one i owned was the 2.5 CDX .

Had an estate 2.5 one many moons ago. Apart from the AC going constantly wrong it was all right. I don't think it was as nice as my current Omega mind.

[Webby the Bear]

whats the mpg like on the one you're looking at steve?

[Sir Tigger KC]

If you're looking at a 2.5 Vectra, why not get another Omega instead?    The fuel consumption wouldn't be that different, would it? 

[omega3000]

2.5 would be nice and probably better mpg than the omega 2.5 ? The ones ive been looking at are the 1.6 1.8 2.0 , think they do a 2.2 as well . Still looking for one thats near to look at and hasnt got too much tin worm . As for mpg i think the 2.0 is more efficient than the 1.8 ?

[OmegaAnglesey]

I wouldn't mind one of these my self not bad cars at all if you get a good one

Good luck with the new purchase mate, Hope you get a good one 

[omega3000]

  Yep there is a big choice , but as you know finding one that fits the bill can be a nightmare .. ive traveled a fair way in cars and on trains to view and a lot are not what they seem in the adds . I need to sell mine first then hopefully find one thats near

Yep that's the problem and i've almost lost hope for myself on finding a 3.2 Elite the way i want it, Anyways what i now believe is pretty much every car is for sale for a reason and that you have to find the problem or problems even and work out if its worth fixing depending what's wrong with it. But i'm sure there are genuine cars out the most with big price tags mind.

[omega3000]

Yep you have to know what to look for before you start out , generally if a car looks tatty then its more than likely to have been used and abused with no servicing . I usually stick to cars ive owned before so that gives you an idea what to look for , even then its a gamble on any used car but more so if you have limited budget .. The search continues

Shame the old Cavalier Gsi 2000 is so old now. I loved mine. Went like a banshee as well

[adey2]

dont touch a 2.2, ive just scrapped 2 of them, engines are only good for about 85-100k at most then burn oil, mine were both doing a ltr every 1000 miles, google ruddy things
