    Clio to vecta?

    Go for a test drive. i wouldn't get one though only thing going for them over other cars are the rpce but that might say something about the car. You can get the 180hp 3.0 turo diesel for £10k. My work mate has had a Vectra for some time as a courteys car he recons its terribale.
