KevinH The Vectra passed it's MOT last week after the near side driveshaft required both CV boots to be replaced. 🙂

KevinH Probably not in quite as good condition as it was when you did the chains (that was over seven years ago :eek🙂, but it's still pretty good. (y)

corsaZ22se My Vectra B died over 11 years ago, 150+k miles on it but she was rotten underneath the cover sills where they all go. Don't see many Vectra B's on the road now. Still a lot of older Vauxhalls about though like Cavilers Corsa B's and Nova's.

corsaZ22se Just regular oil changes at every 5,000 miles or yearly which ever comes first. Only use 10w40 semi synthetic oils as well. Only done 20,000 ish miles in the last 11 years while it's been in Corsa's :LOL:
KevinH My Vectra had just ticked over 124,000 (+3) miles at the recent MOT but likewise has only done just over 20,000 miles in the last ten years. It's had GM 5W30 fully synthetic oil for the oil changes ever since I've owned it from six months old. 🙂
Gary75 KevinH said: An MOT pass for the Vectra today at FG Barnes. 🙂 Good to hear 👍. Mine is due next month. I may be selling it in spring, due to lack of use, after 16 years.
KevinH Hope it goes through the MOT alright. It's a shame to hear that your thinking of selling it after owning it for 16 years. 🙁
