I dont think its all that bad to be honest any dealership is going to be expensive whether its a 1.2 or a 3.0
The window regulator failed on my car and i phones renault and they wanted £202.18 then i phoned Euro carparts and they wanted £83.60.
Thats a testimony to how much of a f**king rip...
Still its the thought of someone else driving your pride and joy, id probaly not be happy.
This happened to me when i had my old C2, it was getting warranty wprk done on it and when i got it back it had 44 miles put on it, i was for leathering the mechanic to be honest!
From what im reading here, are people buying cars to impress girls? f**k that! I couldnt give a rats tit what a bird thinks of my car, im not buying it for them to like im buying it because its a good car.

Your pretty vauge with your circumstances but it would seem insurance isnt a problem so if i were you id go for the CTR all day long mate, better re-sale value, build quality and itll be a better car in the long run, sure people will tell you "there common as muck" well they are because there...

Im tempted to email him and tell him how much of a total wanker he is.
Sorry mate but your as big a mug for even looking for it, come one 25bhp for £3.99, what a complete to$$er!

Drink guiness, good things come to those who wait my son B-)
What corsa and what astra? Both the VXR's?
The old GSi was supposed to be a cracking car, that redtop engine is literally bulletproof. Never driven one so i cant really comment!
Nah London, parts of wales and then places in East Anglia i think (or so according to my uncle who happens to be an inorganic Scientist) Very intresting to hear the truths of the universe from someone who actualy knows rather than some pricck politician who thinks raising car tax is going to...
See what this guy has told you, take it to another mechanic and pass comment on the things that he said as if it were coming from you (like you know what your talking about) then see what he says.
