The bloke had a Bentley before, so obviously just likes the powerful GT cars.. google says prices start at £148k 😩

Saw a 69 plate Insignia GSI earlier

Massive 6 pot Brembos on the front!

Didn't know about these, look alright to be fair!

I've never seen one before. Now I'm kind of hoping I don't see one again.

Yeah the estate ones look proper nice too!

Might I dare say it but Vauxhall might have made a fast car again!?

 

[Matt W]

THOSE THINGS ARE 25k !!!!
id have said 18k max . I’ve always liked the jimny ! Not now

They are around £18k but dealers are pre-registering them and selling at a massive mark up. Still love mine

They've never had a problem giving them plenty of power, being able to navigate down a road properly was a different matter though.
Mind you the current Gsi only comes with 226bhp, which isn't a massive amount.

Not usually a fan of car-specific number plates but fair play on this one.
Probably cost as much as the car

Had an unexpected visit from a friend this morning.

Came out of work last night and as I was leaving I heard a raspy exhaust followed by a bellowing V8

The lads a few units down own some proper wicked cars! Pretty sure there's a fair few pennies sat locked away in there!

They are awesome inside. For the family man who wants to take his kids out in a GT R

 

[terryc101]

Perfect for the morning commute.

Why would you load a car on its roof?

Nah mate it needs putting sideways in the van, can tell you're not a pro🤦‍♂️😂

I know a lot will obviously scorn at this

BUT

Vectra SRI... Shame its been ruined with wanky stickers and badges. I'm not posting this in here as a "wow look at this😍🤤" more of a "huh, don't see them much anymore"

 

[Tighten My Nuts]

Static strips! I haven't seen any of them since 1983!

I saw a Cavalier the other day, not even an SRi or anything and I thought "wow you don't see those anymore".

Honestly I saw a Granada about 2 weeks ago and lost my s**t

My mrs called me a f**king freak😂

 

[CrippsCorner]

Always hated those exhausts.

I missed the whole Magnex exhaust era😢

Saw a VW ID3 today on the back of a trailer, hope he was taking it to the scrap heap, horrid looking thing.

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

A few today...

I can't remember the last time I saw a MK1 Punto!

This was lovely. Would have this over an M4 for sure.

f**k knows what this is all about...

 

[Clio_fool]

I saw a mk3 astra the other day and I thought "wow I hope I don't see one of those for ages again".

I also had a mk1 punto following me to work and those bloody headlamps are still the most annoying ever fitted to a car. I wonder if they ever managed to align one properly?

 

[Oggy997]

Seen this beauty today, not quite sure how you read the model & trim levels in the correct order?

I like how the M badge is tiny so it fits on. 😂

 

[gavinf91]

surely ebay badges.

 

[thecrim22]

i seen a mk1 Mondeo the other day and thought when was the last time seen one of those

 

[PP200t]

Saw a rover tomcat turbo in red earlier this morning and then a escort rs turbo series 1 just. No pictures as was driving at the time. Rover went well!

Did it have a damaged bumper?

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

On the subject of Mondeo's, an ST24 near my house earlier. Can't be many of these left now thanks to rust and head gasket troubles.

the rear end of these always used to disgust me as a child.

 

[Matt W]

My parents had one for a good few years with a pristine bumper.
So many with grey duck tape on!

 

[thecrim22]

Did it have a damaged bumper?

not that i noticed but it was silver so there's every possibility it did have🤣🤣

 

[Big Toe]

I had one of those. Special edition I think cause there was no sign of duck tape

Juice green was a rare choice on those!

A bloke near me has a Juice green estate and a Performance Blue saloon. He's a Ford perv with a big unit so god knows what else is hiding away!!
