Faulty speedo.
A fantastic, cheap to run car which not only looks good, has great performance. Has all the gear, and comforts, but actually looks like a cool car!
Well done Vauxhall, this is a great car!
Hi, I own a 1999 1.8 16v CDX and apart from kids having a pop at the badges (who would want the C of the passenger door anyway???) it's perfect. Fully loaded, goes well, looks really nice with the colour coded bumpers and alloys and much cheaper than Focus 1.8/2.0 Ghia (damn sight quicker aswell).
I was just wondering, do you find it revs really high when its doing motorway speeds? I find mine is doing over 3000rpm at 70mph and although this makes it very responsive even at those speeds it drops the fuel economy like nothing else on earth! 5th gear is wayyyy to short!
