16 Valve Vectra SRI, sat outside a chip shop

[Bales]

I went across town recently and I always notice this silver vectra. This car has literal grass growing out of it and the bumper is held on with tape! I’ve attached a photo below so you can see what I mean.

Jesus that's in a poor state!

Your right, did a check and the owners had it since 2012. It fails it’s MOT every year and the owner doesn’t get it cleaned, inside or out!

Strangely the wheels look cared for though.

Aren’t they Ford wheels?

Just as Kirsty MacColl sang - “There’s guy works down the chip shop runs a vectra”

Came in expecting to see exactly what I did. Leaving satisfied.

Your right, the rest of of the vehicle is a complete mess but the wheels have been cleaned very well. Strange.

I just googled and it turns out that select SRI’s had wheels like this. But yea, those are the wheels you got on ST’s.

They were part of the XP pack. Ours has them.

Thanks. Wasn’t completely sure on that one.

Thats a rare one @Brenwith a sunroof too! Am I right in thinking its an auto too? Or have I imagined talking about it with you previously?

We've got a XP packed auto diesel estate but no sunroof and only 16' snowflakes.

Yes it's auto. With leccy sunroof. Rare spec. The first owner paid a lot of money. But not us.

Looks very nice in that colour too, normally seem to be silver so nice to see a dark green one. To be honest can't think of another I've seen in that colour.

Probably not when £2k gets you the best Vectra you could find.
