bye bye MG

Well finally lost interest in the ZS after 2 hydraulic systems, a sheddist replacement kit and a full clutch assembly, in need of belt change and plenum, so took a drive around looking for an Astra SRi.

Found a reasonably priced silver 06 plated one paid the deposit and pick it up tomorrow

Spent all morning stripping out the stereo, sub amp and speakers and now its back to standard.

Will be sort of sorry to see it go as I wanted one from when they first come out, but at least i can tick it off my list of cars i wanted to have..

Shame, guess it was a matter of time before you either sold it or beat it with a twig! Best of luck with the replacement, they seem to be a popular choice these days.

Did you not fancy the Megane then?
Astras are quite decent cars, a mate has a diesel one and that shifts!
