I collect mine on Monday. Nothing exciting I guess, but it is brand new.

You sold a 330d... for that?!

Raymond Lin · 11 Jul 2011 at 12:49

What is that?

Princey · 11 Jul 2011 at 12:50

That and a Mini Cooper S JCW.

This is for going up and down the M1 every day and not much more.

Astra 1.4 Turbo SRI with lots of spec.

330D to an Astra?

Joe T · 11 Jul 2011 at 13:03

Actually I swapped the 330d for another Astra. This is my second one. I'm on a 5 month replacement cycle.

5 Month replacement cycle?

NathWraith · 11 Jul 2011 at 13:08

Christ on a bike. I hate Astras

Princey · 11 Jul 2011 at 13:15

Looks like a Leon from the side.

He's creating a supply of used stock for us all.

Don't include me in that "us"

Me = no no to Vauxhall and French cars.

I blame my dad, he had a crap Astra.

I wonder if anyone has actually bought that car in that colour. It’s like a mobile glow stick.

A useful safety feature mind you.

Is it me or have there been an influx of posters who make bad posting and car purchasing decisions?

dwarf · 11 Jul 2011 at 14:31

Does it matter? Bad purchases can be just as entertaining as good purchases (for us, not for the buyer). This forum needs a good mix of fail and win to keep it interesting. If everyone just bought the obvious mx5/mondeo/focus there wouldn't be much to discuss and debate over.

I feel like I made the right decision :eek:

Princey · 11 Jul 2011 at 14:39

What power is it running Kosta?

ScoobyDoo69 · 11 Jul 2011 at 14:46

No idea, should be around the 240bhp mark though I reckon with it's mods.

I meant new posters coming in with recently purchased bad cars (not old posters getting bad cars

)
