siggyv6cdti Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 I drive a Black pre facelift 2005 3.0 v6 cdti ELITE 2 Quote
Vauxhall Owners Club Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 They are a fine looking car...suprised they haven't sold more as you don;t see many driving around Quote
siggyv6cdti Posted April 5, 2019 Author Posted April 5, 2019 Had a few Siggys now along with many vectra c too. Looks wise the only thing that lets these cars down is the dash board, someone wasnt very creative when designing it! The vectra c dash is about as interesting to look at as is the mk4 astra, dont hate me! Ive had a few of them to they just aint that pretty unless in full gsi form. I want a vxr estate or anoyhet sri cdti 150 and make it a CdtTi apposed to a ttid Quote
siggyv6cdti Posted April 5, 2019 Author Posted April 5, 2019 Its not offen i was the tank as i always miss bits bjt last weekend it got wash number2 of 2019 and i actually got all the dirt off it and dispite the scratcjes on it it came up a treat Quote
Vauxhall Owners Club Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 it certainly does look the business and by all accounts drives pretty damn well to boot Shame Vauxhall don't have the investment to take their vehicles further into the 21st century but who knows what Peugeot will do with the company in the near future Quote
siggyv6cdti Posted May 6, 2019 Author Posted May 6, 2019 Im an avid oldskool Peugeot fan! Had many 205 309 and 405s gti'sri's xsi's mi-16s i love em.. Had a few 306's to all got abused all got tuned and played with as much as my pocket and skills took me but come 2000 their cars were very disappointing imo. And as Peugeot stand now i quite like the 308s but thata about it for me Quote
siggyv6cdti Posted May 6, 2019 Author Posted May 6, 2019 Its a shame to loose vauxhall as we know it.. Ive had many vauxhall cars too and had a whole lot of fun in them too.. Quote
Vauxhall Owners Club Posted May 9, 2019 Posted May 9, 2019 I agree with your love of old school Pugs...had a few myself and in those days they seemed to be quite bulletproof. I don't think we'll see the end of Vauxhall although it could be a rebadging exercise as Opel possibly? Quote
siggyv6cdti Posted November 20, 2019 Author Posted November 20, 2019 Been on the hunt for an old pug but boy are they expensive!! Might have to buy a wreak and b204 it Quote
Vauxhall Owners Club Posted November 21, 2019 Posted November 21, 2019 Even wrecks are now getting very expensive. I'm always on the lookout for old-school Bimmers, great cars from a great era! Quote
siggyv6cdti Posted April 7, 2020 Author Posted April 7, 2020 My first bmw was an e21 323 alpina rep.. Loved it.. Paid £70 for it off some smackhead in 1995 Probably worth about 10k now Quote
siggyv6cdti Posted April 7, 2020 Author Posted April 7, 2020 My siggy is dead atm water pump is siezed.. That itself is cheap but belts are due and so areall the pullys so its become a bit pricey yo fix atm Quote
Vauxhall Owners Club Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 an E21 323 is awesome, shame you didn't keep it I think about some of the cars I've let go over the years its heart-breaking Sorry to hear about the Siggy, seized water pump? is it part of the cambelt/chain set up? Any other damage to the engine? Quote
siggyv6cdti Posted April 14, 2020 Author Posted April 14, 2020 I know right it would of been worth a few quid now for sure.. My first was a black mk1 fiesta 1300 supersport Still starts and drives (miss daisy driving and it wont cook at all) soon as i forgot this and drive normal she gets hot pretty quickly... The pump squeals on start up too which sounds bloody awful at 4.30am when i d leave for work The pump isnt part of the belt on the y30dt and z30dt so thats handy and i can n get a pump for 100 quid. However she is due belts and pullys anyway so the price of parts is stacking up quickly too. The work i can do but im concerned that as i had to use it when the astra and my vectra had time off ive probably borked the heads its off road and in no rush to make any hasty decisions on rhe siggy yet as id love to keep it Got hooked on the astra turbo init so like a knob ive let it slip on other projects at the mo Quote
Vauxhall Owners Club Posted April 14, 2020 Posted April 14, 2020 lol....that's the trouble with too many project cars, i was the same (or probably still am) and just get one car/bike up together then forget about the other ones until they need work, just goes round in circles. At least you should have more time to get on with the jobs now though? Quote
