Found a Pineapple in a random yard with a load of scrap cars while shortcutting past traffic, knocked on where I thought owned it but it wasn't them, nice chap told me to leave a note as he knows the owner is looking to empty out soon, so fingers crossed I can get shut of the Vec as a daily and get a second mk3

Test Drove a Meriva 1.7 (130Bhp) today, had everything i wanted, parking sensors, panoramic roof, and sat nav which is rare on these. so big decisions to come, slightly out of my budget but its a great drive. And whilst i was testing it, giving is some boot and crusing i was getting about 53mpg which really matters

 

[edessex]

Don't tell me you need parking sensors?

Good mpg though...

 

[TubaMagna8]

I actually do, ussually I get out and have to check lol I hate hitting things lol

Might get it remapped for "economy" at some point

 

[astranaut]

That's what mirrors are for. Tow bars also have their uses for this as well

Always wanted a big tow bar, Might stop people following too close

get a corsa d same engine go well.

I looked at a few Corsa's nice specced ones, but insurance quotes doubled for the same engine, They are popular around this area for having fronts removed over night, which might have something to do with it.

I just like the higher viewpoint and the steering map is for british roads, much better than the zafira's that ive driven. For my photography work and trips I do and want to do this spacious car is ideal.

Anyway I made my mind up and iv'e put a deposit down on the one i drove yesterday... Cant post a picture until i find somewhere to host them
