To be fair Lynns A4 needs regassing but in this country the times you need it at 100% efficiency are few and far between so have not bothered...

I have just completed a 4 hour + round trip in the Vectra Design.

I have never driven such a bag of shite in all my life. Fighting to keep it in a straight line at any speed, absolutely bog all power, shit wheezy engine.

Why the hell anyone would want a Vectra is beyond me. Absolute pants of a car

Ive got a mk5 golf tdi as a company car. Its very well specd but I think its cack.

I don't drive it at weekends as its totaly souless.

Update from the Volvo dealer, car needs a new cylinder head. They are not sure what has happened but have ordered one in. Thankfully all covered under warranty but at 55 thousand miles that must be a first.

At least I only have this Vectra until friday now
