Try going to a Vauxhall dealer to get your car serviced ! You have no idea of how sh*t a 3 cylinder corsa is until you've been forced to use it for a few weeks.

Not really surprised! Good on you!
Might just have to take my servicing business elsewhere!
Who did you speak to?
Ps spoke with the sales manager of formula one in newcastle and he says he could get me 48s at cost.
I dont hold a grudge

I guess cause I'm in Aberdeen and would be pretty screwed without one.

Ed,
What was the cost price for A048s from F1?
MMC quoted me £179 each fitted (rears) plus it costs me the run up and down the road from Aberdeen (they wouldn't deliver).
I got a Grand Vitara last time (also warranty stuff).
But had to insure it...
Cheers,
Ali

Ali, did you not look into getting them delivered to Belmont in Abz?
I would rather have the Vitara!

I've got a contact for A048's , as I got fairly fleeced on the last set.
Let me know (pm) if you want his number, hopefully should have it at home somewhere.

Bloke just said they couldn't do it. Also an extra charge if I wanted them next day...
He was new but I wasn't impressed to be honest. Still trying to sort out my warranty issue with the door locks (get proper keys) but he insisted on starting a new warranty claim...

G, the 206 is better than the last one I got, a Suzuki Alto. Probably the worst car I'll ever drive. It felt like it had done hundreds of thousands of miles but it had only done 500
