How come you downsized from a Vectra again out of interest?
Looks good. Like it on those wheels too. Just polish that exhaust!

had the polish in me hand just couldnt be arsed....
erm vectra i had taken it as far as i could realisticly, was costing a bomb to run and missed fun power delivery. this is same insurance near enough as quick standard and also more fun. much better on fuel ect.
i actually fancied an mx5 but then my vectra was only valued at about 2800 so thought this was a great swap deal

Yeh fair play tbh, I'd prefer the Ibiza over the Vectra and good deal on the swap imo :-)

240 bhp is available for about 600 quid on them so it was a no brainer, hybrid turbo your looking at 280...

i used parkers as a rough guide....
it said the vectra was worth 2800 and the cupra 3800. that was with 80k on which the vectra has, the cupra only has 50k so imo i got a very good deal....
any1 who knows about paint, whats the best thing to do about stone chips
