Yeah I have, I like them Although I have a limited budget so it's looking more like I'll get a Vectra 3.0 V6 CDTi

Oh but... my stepdad hit a deer with his and each Xenon headlight was £700... and tyres are about £1000 for all 4. It is still a £50k car at the end of the day.

 Fancied one of these since I saw one on a British "comedy" program in the 70's - had the plate GAV 1N, IIRC - anybody recall what the program was? Italian style and American muscle. Nice! (DeTomaso Pantera if you're not familiar).

They do look very nice, boot space isn't a huge concern but on a Volvo estate you would expect a large boot. Anyway, today I'm very much liking these: http://www2.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201...
