ZT-T would be bigger, than the Vectra!!!!

Did they do a 260 - tourer, would be bit of a beast.

Taylah isn't growing that fast is she??? Or is it all the gear you have to lug around.

Vectra looked up together, last time we met up, a good deal for someone with a 4 x 4 if they want a px.

Typical!! When you start to think about getting rid of a car something goes wrong!!

Just found out that the drivers side wheel bearing's gone and a couple rear bushes are on their way out!! So i've already ordered the wheel bearings and looking into the bushes!! Gonna do both sides because if one's gone the other might not be far behind!!

But still on Swapz, hopefully go after the bits are done!!

I reckon they know when you are thinking of getting rid.

Their way of paying you back.

Still least its do-able. Best of luck with the swap.

3.3 petrol!!

15mpg - tops .... Costly if it goes wrong. Maaaaaasssssssiiiiiive space mate - but do you really need it ? Hope it goes well for you.

The MPG is the only downfall on this deal, but it might just be the stepping stone to a Shogun (or similar) we need? Deffo loving the size though, they are HUGE inside!!!

Yeah, hopefully better mpg. But it is a smaller engine with a big body! So top speed might not be all that!!!

Bloody typical, just had a phone call from the other guy, and he's decided not too have it now because he can't afford the insurance for the Veccy!!!

You'd think people would work out the insurance etc before accepting a swap!!!

peterzs

All ways think its for a reason, small engine, big heavy body, pull out to overtake!!!!

I think it's a good thing. Think you may have been stuck with an expensive underpowered car to be honest.

Chuck a few quid at this -
