Anyone want a very cool (but bit thirsty) cheap runaround?

Agreed, im sure thats just an indicated speed, and I wouldnt ever want to be cruising at that anyway.
But getting away from the accuracy of the clocks or not, that is still an uber-cool motor for the cash I reckon
(selling it is not anything to do with me, I was actually tihnking of buying it till I considered the 50 quid a week more in fuel it would cost than my A4 tdi)

Not a bad car, but dont let the GSI or 2.5 V6 bit tempt you into thinking its fast....
They are slow, lazy as fook engines, good for crusing along on the motorway but thats about it!
My old one (Genuine GSI, one of only 317 prefacelift estates)

Yes, driving miss daisy and the Vectra was still thirsty as fook
I really miss the practical factor though, sporty estate on the cards again next time, probably Audi S2 or S4

Well I'm glad I just spent a grand on a tv or I would own that now
I wanted a Gsi but it had to be a estate, I converted one to lpg a while back and put a 100litre tank up against the back seats, it still had plenty of boot space and had great range which is what I'm after.
Any idea of a new car though is now going to have to wait till next year but it is typical that these estates keep popping up now, gsi estate does seem rare though.
