But I still have the FL2

Traded in my Signum and bought an Insignia Elite 2.0 CDTi 160 Automatic.

Although it had leather, it was a bit dark, so had the centres re-trimmed. Got the 19's, DVD Navi, Park Pilot and pretty much everything else!

I had one for few days from LRA just after they was launched really good I thought  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

I like the shape of that car.

I think most car nakers have come a long way in the last few years.


I was sorely tempted by the new Skoda Superb 2.0 TDi 4x4 Elegance recently.

It's got all the kit that a top end VW/Audi has (and most of it is the same kit) but 2 thirds the price!
never thought I'd say that but must be getting old.

If your not a badge snob I see no reason not to to go skoda surperb

my brother nearly bought a VRS version Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

I am a badge snob, no way I'd go for a Skoda!

my brother didn't buy one either  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Point made, sod this PC correct language. I remember when a Skoda was slightly better than a Lada. I wouldn't go for Peugot, Seat etc. just as bad. Ford, VW and the likes are too bland, oh I feel another topic coming on.

Good job your not earning average wage because there would be no cars that you could afford that you would be prepared to drive.
Lets not forget who owned Land Rover when the current product range was developed ermmmm Ford. Oh and that Disco TDV6 has a Ford/Peugeot lump.
I must admit the old Skoda was so bad it won its class in the RAC Rally something like 24 times in 25 years.  2009 FL2 GS

Funny my wife had a hand in getting rid of my Kia too, and I got my first Fl2 just after

Good for the cash We paid but under powered

Sorry mav71, better get it back on topic

Did you get a coat of supernatural on the Elite? Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Not yet, going to wait for the easter break and give it a good going over. Done the FL2 in super natural and it's excellent!

Just used the last bit of DDJ Purple haze on the Insignia. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

Woke this morning at 5:30 ( not by choice) after feeding little NP I was thinking what a nice day for cleaning the car

ended up giving the Mrs' punto a going over this afternoon, to say it was last washed before Christmas and coated with supernatural is was suprised by the beading produced, but clayed it and gave a coat of red mist as light was failing Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
