Took the advice of a few people on here and got this!!

1.9 CDTI SRI X-Pack 150 bhp, 1 owner, 32k, Sport button etc. Bargain 7.2k!

Drove it quite a bit over the weekend and love it. Excellent value for money IMO. Few rubbish pics on camera phone

I'd also like to know this - dad is looking at getting a 3 dr, but there is no info about them.

That needs the exterior pack imho too. Still nice though

The X pack is the "Exterior pack". And that car in the pics above doesn't have it!


Exterior pack 5 door is below (Grill isn't Exterior Pack)

They dont all have the 18s and 'Exterior Pack' pretty sure they're all still costly upgrades. On ebay and autotrader theres loads of X-pack's that dont have them.

X Pack and Exterior pack are exactly the same...just X Pack is an abreviated way of saying it. In your description above you put "X Pack", but the car doesn't have one on.

If a car says its an X pack or exterior pack then it should look like mine in the pics above.

You will probably find on ebay that cars are listed as X pack but aren't.


Still a great car tho...you chose the right engine..



You should get a DTUK Tuning box on it too.

Is the boot spoiler and colour coded bits and bobs classed as exterior pack?

Tbh...I think either it was never fitted with the exterior pack by mistake, or its on a fake plate, or they took the bits off and sold them.

Fook knows. Defo not fake plates and nothings been taken off! It will be an X-Pack when I've finished with it anyway
How does the vauxhall boot badge come off? Looks so much better without it

Cant see why they would have though? Both late 30's early 40's, no kids, seemed genuinly nice people. Unless they got mugged off at vauxhall Wouldnt be the first time
