thinking of new fto?????maybe

Postby paul2508 » Mon Sep 28, 2009 7:48 pm

hi peeps,

long time no chat, hows everybody doing?

im on the brink of making the decision to get another fto,gpvr would be nice.
i recently bought a 03 vectra for myself , nice car i must say, lovely black car with 18 inch black alloys on chrome rim.
only 68k on clock, nct till march 2011 just serviced last month too , PWO I MUST SAY.recently put black lexus lights on it which makes the whole car stand out, but ive strongly been thinking of trading up for a fto, i know id would get a straight swap for it too or part exchange. had three offers off people who had ftos ,but my head is melted,dunno what to be doing,
what would you guys do? :? would you hold onto the car or would you slip back to the fto side? i miss having a fto,the power difference compared to a 1.6. plus thinking about a mivec makes me want it more

please help

There is only one logical answer to this.

Also, If you're selling the Vectra let me know. I'm looking for an 03 but without the sporty bits.

You're not a member of a Vectra forum as well are you?
