got me a new car
boss:
haha! got rid of my crappy 306(wasn't actually crappy, i just hate french cars :-$) traded it in for a 1998 Astra will full service history, new tax, 4 new tyres
cam belts done 4k ago cruse controle, lecci mirrors, CD player A/C, remote central locking. immaculate in and out only had 2 owners £800 :D
only costs £350 for me to insure it! :dance:
wanted a 90 or 110 but don't have the money to build daisy AND buy/insure/run a defender! think its better i have the sensible car and the radical.
i am amazed at how smooth it is though i was driving down the A11 earleyer and didn't realise i was doing 9......70 8-[ :doh: and diddnt realise
it is annoying that it doesn't have a rev counter though, at least with a defender you can hear the engine and know when to change up :lol:
anyone got one? anything to look out for?
landymadjay:
what engine?
boss:
1.6 16v
ChrisW70:
I had a 1.6 LSi for a company car a good few years back, other than being too tall to be able get the drivers seat in a decent position for my right knee it was fine. Only problem I ever had with it was the electric aerial packed up.
boss:
not sure if ive got one of them.....on closer inspection i seem to have a cd multi changer but i cant for the life of me figure out how to work it! im hoping its like the one in out x-trail when we had it where we just fed them in to the sterio and it spat them back out when you asked....
