Just got a brand spanking new Astra SXi 2.0 DTi this morning. My dad gets it cheap on some sort of scheme as he works for vauxhall. And it only costs £10 a month to insure me on it =) (normally it would cost upwards of £1000 to insure me on somethin like this! seeing as i'm only 19) And we get a brand new one every 5 months :)


Anyways, i get to drive it to UNI every day so i'm as happy as can be right now! :D Just took it for a little cruise around town, proper nice...Stereo is nice and bassy with a lovely CD player :)

Bwa ha ha ha ha!!!!

Cars for class, perhaps, but bikes for speed.

My little 600 will do 0-60 in 4.1. admittedly it tops out at 130mph, but i had the gearing changed for snappier accelleration.

My new bike comes this year, a Ducati 916 - the bike of my dreams. 0-60 in 3.4, tops at 170.

Getting a new one in black (black sapphire) next week! :D

Wasnt expecting it to be shipped in (they come from Germany/Belgium i think) till the end of february! Will thrash the hell out of the "old" one this week!

This new one is a "elegance" though. Its nice an all, but its only got 15" alloys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! its like the end of the world! Will hopefully get a SRi next time round. Which is cool becasue it has er...traction control...

Think its expensive now? Imagine how much it's going to cost when your old enough to drive. Lil piggy boy!

Indeed MoJo, it's a rip off. Firstly, the lessons, theory and the actual test, then the actual car, then insurance, and soon (depending on when it runs out) the tax and MOT. Then of course you put £20 in and it'd probably last a 19yr old 3 days. It's a bomb. And with Labour trying to get cars off the road, it's almost impossible for students to afford it.

Although I'm not quite as sad as Mystique, who's 19, I'm 18 and can't drive yet. Haven't even started lessons, and to be honest, I probably never will. Don't see the attraction

The Astra is the current touring car champion. Hell, you can drive the thing in GT3 on PS2.

You should check out the vauxhall VX220
