Ali, a friend of mine in Walsall has one that he's going to put up for sale shortly. It's in great condition, been used for a genuine motorway commute. Only for sale as he wants another Alfa GTV (he is an Italian car nut, has a 159 and a Lancia Delta Integrale). Has had all the recalls done, just not sure on mileage.

Thanks for the heads up Alex, but I'd need to buy one from a dealer. I'm being pretty indecisive at the moment and can't decide what to do!! I keep forgetting I want to sort the VX properly and mentally spend all my money elsewhere!

Fair enough, I know that the dealer he used offered silly deals new, likewise there is a dealer near me that knocks huge chunks off list price.

Yes good to have a talk to a face about the Vx rather than a screen. Your Vx went well on track and sounded great.

Northampton Pit Crew strike again. Badge repair on a failed fog light bracket. Question, is a bracket replacement a clam off job?

I took my clam off to do mine, my nearside wheel arch liner was playing silly buggers, good chance to a clean too

Nothing mate. Just trying to keep the mileage down on the VX. Maria has got a new job close enough to home that she can walk it. So i can use her car to drive to work.

Olly, Nothing really, I'm kinda hoping a decent used front clam will come up for sale over winter to avoid me paying vauxhall prices, I said I'd wait until the end of the year for one to come up for sale but I'm already bored of waiting! I don't think I'm going to miss out on much over winter really.
