well bit the bullet today and bought a new car

never got anything that we were origonally thinking of

ended up with an 06 plate vectra 1.8 sri

very nice car lots of room and plenty poke for what we need, sat nav aswell which is handy

hopefully pick it up next week once the wifes plate gets sorted

need some pics of vectra c to see what they can look like

already spotted a nice irmischer grill

Ideal time to buy a car like that, as prices for nearly new cars have plummeted. It'll be a nice car

Try LMF Vauxhall or even Vectra-C.co.uk (?).

That red C looks immense

I think I prefer the pre-facelift front, looks more menacing

Are they genuine SLR wheels?!

Looks cool. SRi black headlights tend to help the menacing look, although I'd be tempted to DIY a set and make more black inside lol.
