Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that the styling changes on the new A4 are drastic over mine, but the way you set your previous post out, you made it sound like the new Astra was a massive leap from the old one aesthetically (given you replied to a comment about how they look, bland).

The fact that it still looks like an previous-gen, facelifted Astra means that the "bland" comment still rings true.

Styling is subjective and I was mainly suggesting that grudas hadnt seen the new model yet (which isnt surprising as there's only a few on the roads at the moment).

Also, a new model with the same name still needs to be recognised as what it is. The real developments are underneath, and that's really what matters.

Plus not changing things radically improves residuals for the outgoing model which reduces the cost of financing new models.

Mercedes annoyed a LOT of the US market E Class fanatics when the facelift W212 E Class turned up looking almost like an all-new car.

I still feel young and I'm older than Ramirez!

You feel young because you're 10.

The spec on that insignia is great Has your company ever had problems with the Insignias and assuming you don't work for Vaux or something, what made you choose an Insignia over something like a Mondeo?

Unless I'm much mistaken, I think he does...

Fresh MOT yesterday with no advisories, service, Fresh Cam belt kit fitted. The vectra lives on.

 

[Akagi]

Never mind.

Just kidding, that is probably the smartest Vectra I've ever seen!

Does it have a decent engine?

 

[sigma]

Smartest Vectra you have ever seen?

Have you not seen the ones with IRMSCHER badges?

Unfortunatly not, a very dull and boring 1.8vvt

Glasgow was sunny?

East Kilbryde yesterday. Drove to Edinburgh and back in the snow for a kitten.

So this has been mine for the day for an extended test drive.

After the novelty of pointing and squirting the throttle had worn off it's just a very normal car and I feel it's far too fast to get any enjoyment out of it. Was actually looking forward to driving my Type R again.

The DSG gearbox is fantastic though and I absolutely love that fart on upshifts!

As a normal car for the missus it would do a great job.

 

[Clarkey]

What is it, an R? Looks like nothing special at all. Got to say, the wagon body seems out of proportion with the front end, doesn't look quite right.

 

[peterattheboro]

Yeah it's an R.

I don't mind the estate but white is the worst colour.

I'm guessing that is a joke?

If not you must have an awful taste in cars!
