Yeah m8, nice cars, but a veccy in a swedish frock.
They do depreciate very badly though.
Get it cheap enough and use it as a half-decent runabout.
IMHO.
Would'nt mind a nice auto estate version myself. :y

the 150 would be a 2.2? Chain driven Ecotec engine same as the Vectra 2.2 a reliable engine so im told only thing to watch is the chain oiler can get clogged if its not had regular oil changes
