I've driven the E320 cdi with the same motor but 5 speed and it'd take a good petrol powered car to get away from it :y :y

After years of bashing how facelifts look, you buy that  ;D - Makes Facelift look like a DB9  :D

Any more pictures?

How come you bought it? Got a bigger caravan to tow?

Hope it serves you well  :y

There are R320s & R280s .... both 3 litre lumps  :-\ metric torques perhaps  :-\ :-\ They set off at £47000 & it looks pretty easy to 'spec them up' by a good few £thousand  ;)

I've just stated the obvious  ;) If you want a car that looks like an Astra G ..... buy an Astra G  ;) ;) ;)

Any more pictures?
I've only got this one cos I was taking the piss & asked the saleman to send me a picture of it ... just to remind me what I've bought  ;D He took me literally  ::)

Just fancied a change. I saw one last year on the road & had never seen one before, so looked it up on't'internet. Same caravan though this should be able to tow the house.  ;D

Hope it serves you well  :y
Thanks!  :y

Cool. Bet it's a fantastic drive.  :y

Glad you went for silver.. or is it grey..or silver/grey..or grey/silver. Anyway, that colour that is the same as 50% of all cars on the road.  ;) The black ones look like hearses.  ;)
