My mum and dad thought the clutch was going on their Signum (again!! Probably my mums driving), so they did a quick part exchange deal, and got this puppy...

Astra 1.9

My uncle also came round in his CL55 amg...OOOoo baby when he started it up!! Not bad for 100k, but personally I think i'd go for an aston... Still it showed the Astra up! :D

That's a fairly expensive bit of tarmac outside your house - all nice in their own way but until I had £100K I'd still choose the Meg

Yeah the astra is quite nice, turns a few heads, not sure if it would have been my first choice, but they wanted a hard top convertible, the meg cc is quite big and high at the back, and I had to quickly steer them away from the 307cc!! Not a bad little summer car for my mum though.

My dad took the number plates off to clean behind them, the garage left sticky spongy pads behind them, for show plates I imagaine.

He's modded it already! Clipped an 'I' Irmscher badge on the front grille! :rolleyes:

glad they didn't opt for the 1.8 petrol - they are shockingly slow! they are quite a heavy car!
