New Wheels.

[turbonutter69]

Just been out and ordered the new car.
Got to phone back Monday to find out a delivery date.
Should be beginning of March fingers crossed.
Happy happy happy.

 

[Loz]

Oooh Exciting! What did you go for in the end? (Think I might know but I won't spoilt it for you)

 

[turbonutter69]

You ready it's a bit of a long one.

I'm having a Vauxhall Astra 2.0 CDTI SRI VX Line. Phew.

 

[dagger]

Nice choice mate

 

[MasterAuron]

As long as it's not a Vauxhall.

Oh shi....

Oh shi....

You are so naughty

 

[T9 man]

TN, I'm really happy for you, you are long overdue for driving around in something nice I hope you gave the Ford dealership all the gory details just to rub their noses in it? :bigsmile:

We all new it was going to be a Vauxhaull

Hope the car suites you down to the ground.

Its a shame you didn't push the boat out that extra yard and go for a VXR.

There have been a lot of VXR people on TC, but none of them seem to last long, and none of them have any good banter. It would be nice to have a ''regular'' with a VXR, so me and MA could slate you for no reason, other than we would be scared incase it turns out faster than our own! :blink:

The VX Line is a new range for 2012.
It is the top spec car.
They haven't offered a VXR for the new shape yet afaik.
It will go pretty well tbh with 212 bhp and 327 lb ft of torque after a remap.

That'll surprise a few people :amuse: Look forward to the pics

 

[turbonutter69]

That's the plan buddy.

Those figures look interesting . I'll assume you was able to test drive it, what did it handle like?

 

[turbonutter69]

Nope not driven a VX Line as none of the dealers have one in.
I had a go in a normal 2.0 Sri yesterday and it was quite pleasant tbh.
Comes absolutely loaded with toys and goes pretty well too.
Only difference between the normal Sri and the VX Line is a few frilly bits added to the body and 19 inch wheels instead of 17's.

I think you will like it! The remap must be pretty high on your to do list now!

 

[turbonutter69]

It's already booked in.
