Was thinking about sellin veccy v6 and purchasing a corsa 2.0 or let corsa???
like the veccy space etc.....comfort speed etc..gets alot of looks too....
had it 6 months and spent about 1.5k..wheels,zorst,timing kit,mot,tax etc..few other bits
how much for the veccy?????
missus got her own car now so don't need the space so much etc..
i would be sorly tempted....
am i being daft and going backwards to my younger days....?????
I fancy a standard gsi with a 2.0 or let....buy it with all the work done though...
probably won't happen like but..........???????
opinions...

I think its all down to personal taste really, there is lots of options down there... vectra's are vectra's .... nice cars... mate has one... but never going to stand out IMO... unless you wanna do something funky with a car you gotta go elsewhere

my vectra seems to stand out...always gets looks etc....
but even though it's fast and comfy...still reckon a corsa with 2.0/let etc would be SO much fun......
but i don't wan't it breaking down and the hassle though..would have to be relieble
