...go to Bellinger Vauxhall in Wantage, I sh1t you not I came in my pants this afternoon when I got there.
They have in stock
2 x Astra VXR both in Arden Blue
2 X Vectra VXR one in Black one in Arden Blue
2 X Zafira VXR in Silver and in Arden Blue
2 X Monaro VXR one in Black one in Red
I never knew this garage was there until today when I went there to look at a car, they have loads of Astra Coupes and Cabriolets, seems they have more of the top spec cars then lower spec like most Vauxhall dealers, got back to my Coupe and it looks very "normal" compared with the cars they had there.

I actually got annoyed, I took Rachel took look at this car I was'nt looking Rachel was and the salesman approached me, I like the way he just presumed it would be me buying a car.

Went to look at this one today, its to expensive as its 12k but she is going to get one for around 10k as soon as we have found one.
We did look at Clio 182's but at the end of the day its a Clio and it won't hold its value as good as the Astra and does'nt look as unique, she even looked at two CTR's to my disgust but after looking round a silver one and a red one her words were "hideous" was a bargain though 51 plate 8.5k
Then lastnight checked the insurance on the Astra GSi and it was cheaper for her than the 182 coming in at 900 quid, it has a turbo what she wants, has unique looks and is'nt a girly girl car, and after seeing that one today shes is in love.
So pleased

I know, I'm more excited than she is, actually no, she is very excited, the thing she likes the most is the seats and the seatbelts.
Not that it has 200bhp and goes vrooom tish

Perrys in Preston is like that, always have funky stuff.
Its a nice change to the ones near me who occasionally have one in with the optional Irmscher pack, which they steer you towards when you say you want something fast.
