The Reverend Bluejeans Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Similar to below, this blue and a Y plate. Petrol 1.8, current owner 10 years. Working LPG, has an MOT, good tyres, recent front wishbones. Good body, very well maintained. Occasionally cuts out but disconnecting a plug and refitting it gets it going. It has a towbar. It's in Worksop and it's £299. Faker and cpjitservices 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpjitservices Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I sorely miss my Vec B Estate, was a smashing Car. Mine was a 'W' reg and Auto - went like a rocket too. Had the cutting out issue, new coil pack resolved the matter. Also had to renew the rocker gaskets that sit on top of the spark plug wells as they would fill with oil. Once those jobs were done it was outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I drive them, the more I find them the perfect Cavalier replacement. Brilliant cars and better than anything in the same class without doubt.

Brilliant cars and better than anything in the same class without doubt.You are a serial Vauxhall apologist! They were ok but they weren't an improvement at all over the Cavalier. Still though at £325 who gives a shit, it's got plenty of test and it should cost pennies to run on LPG. Rare Estate as well so gr8 4 tip runs m8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Reverend Bluejeans Posted June 6, 2017 Author Share Posted June 6, 2017 Make an offer. It has one wheel on the weighbridge with the LPG system removed and rammed full of old exhausts and brake discs. Once it's gone, it's gone. Current owner 10 years.

The Reverend Bluejeans Posted June 6, 2017 Author Share Posted June 6, 2017 £299 - the crusher is calling......... A Vectra estate with working LPG and nearly a year's MOT for under 300 quid. What the fuck is going on here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twosmoke300 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 A vectra b estate was the best car we have ever had ! In fact the Octavia we have just bought is the same colour , size and power output and we hope it's the spiritual replacement for the vectra .

sierraman Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Not far from me either, I'm not the Vectras biggest fan but at £300 it's an ideal winter beater. cpjitservices 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
