Bad Points
well vauxhall is always the same things this is a h plate and the outer archs needed a slight rebuild due to rust, there was a small hole in the boot floor pan and the brake pad warning light was stuck on (due to a bloody so called mechanic ripping the wires out) so i took the bulb out of the dash otherwise it is a mot failure when there is no faults and if brakes get bad the abs light will turn on but you should be able to tell when the brakes need sorting, other then that it is a good old vauxhall with over 132k on the clock and still going strong

General Comments
this is a very fast car i raced a modded saxo last night and left him for dust it is big so people who are nervous about driving move out of the way but i would not recommened someone who is not confident when driving as with a big and powerful car like this it can cause alot of damage in the wrong hands (like giving a tank to a subrub gang) not nice, the inside is really comfortable with dual heater control (it has 2 knobs for the heater one for the left hand side and one for the right) so you can make one half of the car hotter then the other, and for space you got someone like me who uses the boot for 101%audio (man's gotta have his sounds when cruising) but i got 4 escort wheel's in the boot and was able to lay in it aswell so there is loads of room,it has a auto gearbox (would love a manual in the car tho) with the magical S button on it ahh where would we be without this lovely switch, to pull off in 3 i can get 60 in about 5-6 seconds if i have it is and press this S button i can hit 60 in 4-5 secs and it keeps on going , i have had her doing 125 with no probs and this was after it was sitting for a year and had naff tyres on it (lucky for me i was on roads in the middle of no where) but she wanted to go more now i have sorted the bugs i can't wait to get it on the tracks and time it oh and the reason i put this in boy racer cars is because i am 21 i have always been in to big cars just as long as the engines matches it in size
