Had a 2.2 Vectra (02 plate) and it werent that bad, brothers still got his and its not that bad. I guess this is an internet rumour? or people are expecting too much of a 2.2 car.

Paid £2k for my Vectra so maybe thats an option, think they look boss.

Edit: The 2.2 was only £600 a year to insure too, 22, 2 NCB
