Can i ask why your looking at it? Price seems ok but you can get an astra sri-t or coupe turbo for that money with less miles but you dont get as much space, just a thought.

Well i imagine the mpg will be low to mid 20's. Ive never liked the look of that phase of vectra, probably better asking on vvoc.com.

Why not an older gsi? My brother had one and it was really nice. Only thing that let it down was water went into one of the xenons and it cost a bomb to fix. His ticked over 180k and still went like a train. He sold his for £500, bloomin bargain.

i like them.
pro's is it looks like an undercover police car so people hopefully won't drive up your arse or act a dick.
con's is you'll look like an old family man therefore less attractive to potential sluts.
good for dogging though.

My dad got 1 a few months back.
52plate,blue paid £4k for it.decent spec,alot of car for the money and he said fuel wise its actually not bad.Better than the 328i he had before it.
Ive driven it once and fell in love with it.Goes good,has bags of torque and pulls hard in any gear.Nice and comfy to drive and looks the part.
Make sure theyr arent any dash lights on etc as there is alot of electrical bumf in them and the canbus system is pricey if it fuks up.

A good car is worth travelling for, problem is you don't know if its a good car or not until you arrive there
