Yes, Steve is being truthful.

We have come to an arrangement where he has offered me a fantastic figure to buy back the Silver facelift LPG that I bought from him a few months ago...

I love the car too, but I couldn't turn it down.

I hope you enjoy her once more, Steve :y

8 grand on an Astra??? ya should have spent 2k on an omega and 500 quid on a gas conversion!, spend the rest on fuel!

AstraH nice as they look, have a few build issues compared to the G.

Not driven a H, but the astraG gave me massive back ache when driving, the seats are crap!

So whats the story then?..........alfa traded for a facelift, so where does the astra come into it?........did you give STMO and astra or did he give you one aswell as the Alfa/, the latter makes more sense ;D ;D [smiley=beer.gif] [smiley=beer.gif] :o ::)

It suits my purposes exactly, and the savings I will make on fuel, tax, insurance and repairs will more or less pay for it.

Tunnie, I COULD have spent 2K on an omega and £500 on a gas conv., but then I'd spend all day on here asking how to make it run right.

Cost new £15000, 10 months old £8495 minus £2000 for the alfa, it makes sense to me :y ;D

I've got no MOT till 2010, no service for 20000 miles and my ins and fuel is halved. :y
