Urge to sell has now all but gone
I am sorry to say that over the last few weeks i was having strong urges to get rid of the SE2 and puchase
a Vectra VXR Estate (dont ask).
Now since spending a rather lot of money on her i'm beginning to like it again. I have replaced the discs and pads on the front
so with the 4 pots it stops very quickly, i have also now got 2 decent tyres on the front and replaced both tie rods as the
old ones were seized solid and the tracking was well out. Now its all tracked up it handles a lot better and seems to respond
on steering alot better, so i'm rather chuffed as they say.
All i have to do now is sort out the bl**dy ABS light and do the sump gasket and then finally get round to sorting out the little
paint bubbles and give it a wash and polish/wax and the works ready for winter.

Keeping for the time being, too much money spent to let it go just now
