right no silly Off Day comments from the usual nobs.....
im probably getting a 1.8 astra sri in the next month or so, as its only insurance group 8 or 9, and probably about £3500 to buy.
now ive searched on various websites etc myself including parkers to see if i can get anything better for my money and i cant think of anything better tbh (in the same insurance range)
its quicker than a 2.0 focus, 1.6 corsa, 1.4 nova and 1.6 + 1.8 vectras so i cant really think of anything else..... like a i say insurance is a very big issue for me currently so its probably as quick as im going to get this year, plus theres nothing better than combines looks+speed for the same insurance,
can anyone venture a wild guess at something else other than the sri or is it the right car for me, bearing in mind my budget and insurance circumstances?

your limiting yourself straight away by thinking like that.
I wouldnt dream of a diesel before I was introduced to the idea of these VAG Dervs.
130bhp for insurance grp 8 aint bad at all
