Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted June 5, 2017 Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 I've had a 2009 vectra estate for 3 years. Been toying with swapping it for the last 12 months but I just don't know what to get. I've looked at other estates, vans, 4x4, pickups. I get 45mpg going about my daily business, 60mpg on a run going steady. It's big inside, huge with back seats down. I've carried 350-400kg no bother. It's the 1.9 SRi (150 bhp) and it's had DPF removal, EGR blanked and remapped so it pulls like a train. Cheap on parts. And it doesn't matter if I knock it about or park it in dodgy spots as it's worth f**k all now. I just don't know what to replace it with so will probably run it into the ground.

Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted June 5, 2017 Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 I've looked at these myself. Am I right in thinking the boot is all plastic and no carpet so more suited to wet stinky mutts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
