It's good that so many of you have seen them, so GM must be selling them; they need to! ::) ::) :D ;)

Perhaps it is just me, but as I have said I have yet to see one around Ashford which is very surprising. :o

Give it ten years.


Yes, we do have a high proportion of 'older' cars around here, but there is a growing business community who I thought would be driving them by now.  As you say, 10 years time and they will be everywhere / going to the breakers!! ;) ;)

I worked in Mill Hill and had a mate from Ashford. We finished at 6 o'clock and he sometimes didn't get home until nine. Lorries stacked on motorway or something.

I know it well.  ;) Whereabouts did you work and why didn't you ever pop in for a cuppa?  ;D

What I can't understand is why Vauxhall are still racing the Vectra in the BTCC series. They should have had enough time to build an Insignia and capitalise on the TV exposure of such a high profile race series from race 1.

seen two (one estate) here in Switzerland but both looked like garage-owned cars.
The styling too busy for my liking. But that can be said for many if not most of new cars.

wrong way round - but then there os a reason for this - a lot of new drivers are actually scared of RWD, I used to live next to someone who was terrified of the idea - even though it was so much better
