I actually like the GTO's Rog! Not as reliable and economical as a vRS though.

That was my thought czech mate, but have a new winter vehicle now, and if it was left stood up for the winter it probably wouldn't have done it any good, the MOT expired end of November, would've needed a couple of tyres shortly ideally (still more than legal) and a sticky caliper as well as probably could've done with a cambelt next year (on time not miles), not a lot of money and the condition would've been worth it.
Didn't want to 'give it away' to someone for silly money, it was cheap enough as it is, then I would rather have tucked it under a cover for the winter. Gone to a new home now though it's been a great car
