moving on from nova's

[goldengraham]

Well thought it was time to get something different, Several reasons really. High insurance costs at the age of 18 on a nova is mad with modifications declared, so i found it more reasonable to insure a newer and modern standard car. Also i do a lot of work in different places, so moving the tools around in the boot of the Nova and a ford KA wasnt exactly appropriate for work use, also being out and about a lot with mates thought it would be nice for something some what bigger and more comfy. I'm planning to keep the Nova for now as i know in the summer i will have have the 'buzz' of wanting to drive it again!

i chose to stick with Vauxhall after ages looking for a Ford Focus but never saw one that was good in my price range
Decided on a Vauxhall Vectra 1.8 16v petrol, 2000 on a 'x' reg, Very good condition and only covered 47k miles so low for its age, couple of pictures

HAHA i was thinking the same but i have the problem of the fact that i payed all my insurance off in bulk.

Should have payed it monthly DAMN!

I mean i LOVE my car it's just so different to anything else that is around when with my mates.

Drives a way none of my mates cars do aswell but it is forever needing something fixing!"

Dont forget the two pairs of un-matching pillows on the parcel shelf lol

That is a stunning looking vectra tho, Looks hard as nails !

[Philsutton]

They arent bad cars, you can get really good condition ones for pennies. Down side is they are seriously boring and would be crashin into things just to keep myself awake.
