Title: Thinking of defecting....
Post by: psg150 on 27 October 2009, 21:57:32

My Miggy is on it's last legs, was going to get another but have been looking at the price of vectras on 01 02 plates and they are a steal, with much lower running costs!!

Reviews suggest they are good 2nd hand motors... any thoughts? :-?

Wifes got a 2.2 02 plate Vectra, nice car but not particularly frugal when it comes to mpg

Its a 98 2.5 V6CD. eng man light on, coolant leak ( topping up weekly) and exhaust blowing. All fixable but not worth it for me.
