The nly comment I'd make really is that the seats aren't overly comfortable (especially compared to the Miggy) but certainly not uncomfortable

I know its FWD and it runs on the other stuff but are there any well known mechanical problems i need to look out for. I'd rather know before i buy one than after like the 206 and finding out that most of them have an ECU proble

well having just repaired an 04 2.0dti zafira and a 03 2.2 vectra can honestly say, [smiley=thumbdown.gif] both of them are a nightmare to work on, leak off pipes with pin holes in them are common faults, whcih cause very poor cold starting and even worse the simple job of changing fuel filter means that 9 times out of 10 they wont start on the key they have to be towed!!
dmf are known to be very problematic as well, all in all im not impressed

And your a dab hand too, shudder to think how a mere mortal like me could get on with it. Shame DTi VeccyC's are cheap now.
