My vectra

Hi all Although I no longer have a ZS, I'd still like to stick around because I like the attitude on these forums

As some of you may know my ZS 120+ was written off because I got rear ended, I was going to buy it back but the clutch release bearing had just started going and I got a nice offer for the car.
From here I started looking at ZS 180 but couldn't get insured as I'm 20, so that was that.

... So then I bought a vectra diesel -Puts flame suit on-
It's a 2.0 litre diesel turbo, so it's not too slow
It's huge compared to my ZS and of course doesn't handle as well, but the savings in fuel, insurance and tax make it worthwhile for now.

My own touches are:
- Orange cat
- Black grill

The condition of the paintwork wasn't the best, so today I set about sorting it out and adding my own touches (some of you may not like them). I woke up at 7am and did the following:
- Washed
- Used Meguires Scratch X on a few places
- Used a clay bar
- Used a chipstick on some of the stone chips
- Polished
- Used a spray on the black plastics

Here are the results - I was quite suprised by the shine!
