Yes, says he. Because he's having a joke with the thread author. Quiet time now.

Black Lynny

Drving position i found a little odd, interior isnt "cool" but it looks nice when yor inside.
HUUUUUUUUUUUUGE boot.


According to autocar they are great and as adam posted handle well. Not popular due to the gap in 5-door performance saloons etc

Get one and give me the keys

Can imagine it being good at being a motorway cruiser and fun on the back roads given its size (awaits stupid CS reply on how a 106/corsa would be better)

Get one Has to be facelift aparently it drives better and wheels are amazing

Theres 2 versions.

Early ones had slightly less power, and different suspension, and different wheels

I've driven one. Certainly quick for a Vectra, but seemed very average to drive for me. I also drove a Mondeo ST220, and whilst the Vectra was quicker, the Mondeo was nicer
