I know how you feel. Ours was in a while ago for body repairs after a TW@ ran a red light and smashed the front up. I still think that one day Cols going to kill that man. How he did'nt at the time i'll never know.

Anyway insurance rented us a astray sri. It was dangerously slow.
Five weeks we were without our baby. We were heartbroken. So Racebread i'm feeling your paincry

Is it Vauxhall that are supplying the Astra? This has been discussed before, I thought they were supposed to give you a high end model as a replacement. When mine went in I got a Saab Aero via Enterprise, some people have had VXR8s IIRC.
