Sounds like a Friday afternoon job! I have driven Vauxhalls for years, never had any major problems, they are the best quality manufacturers. Also get a good mechanic you can trust, don't use main dealers for anything except parts.

Had mine one year. Excellent. 13,000 miles at 29.5 mpg. Whats better than that in off road?I travel to work 30 mile each way. Used mostly on country roads. At 38k mileage only moan is noisy when start up cold. Otherwise brilliant motor for money.
