I'd like to say a big thankyou to Vauxhall and it's specialist Monaro Dealers for giving us the opportunity to own an incredible car with a full Factory Backed Warranty.
What's more, everything's in the right place, as the Monaro was designed to be a RHD car and not a Euro-Box that's adapted for UK drivers. Not forgetting to mention the US left-hookers.

You've obviously only been to Greens then?

All the rest of the 'Monaro Specializts' (sic) are shite.

But I would extend my thanks to Vauxhall for having the balls to bring in the Monaro

Got to take issue with you there, Mr Demolition. I've never been to Greens myself, but from what I've read here, I would have no hesitation in doing so. I have used Picador in Southampton, simply cos they were nearer. I have spent thousands with them on mods and tuning and they have always been knowledgeable, helpful and very accomodating. Good welcome, loan car etc. and good prices. Wont hear them referred to as "Shite". Unlike a certain specialist near LHR where I bought the car. Now they are shite, of the copious, steaming variety! Would never darken their threshold ever again. Pants.
Fully agree, full marks to Vauxhall, Best theyve done since the Lotus Carlton.

OK - posted last message after a few beers....

What I meant to say was, 'the vast majority' of the Monaro 'specialists' were shite.

Appologies to Picador

Greens sound great having a courtesy car like the monaro.

Only fault with picador is having a 1.2 litre corsa with wave fm splashed over it. Guess it keeps the costs down tho

Having my car go into a normal vauxhall bodyshop for a small dent to be fixed (women driver failed to see my devil yellow and reversed into me) where they claim I keep the warrenty intact because they do it. Glad I am not paying as it is costing £700 for a dent less than 2 inches accross.....

Think I got a meriva? or something like that. Not at all nice, but it gives you a while to reflect on how good the Monaro is !

I have to say that I've found Motorbodies pretty good so far - no complaints anyway.
