It may only be for a smidge of a second, but its there, at about 23 to 25 seconds.


I can't get the embedding to work, maybe admin would be kind enough to sort this for me. Thanks

For what it's worth it was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable but in the end is right
I hope you have the time of your life

a friend of mine went to 1 of the vx track days to celebrate the release of the fronty, all day the many test drivers spent all day thrashing astras [ he thinks] around the track while taking the invited guests as passengers, my mate asked his pilot if the cars would be sent to auction after the press days had finished for some poor sod to buy thinking he had got a cheap bargain but the driver said no they will have service & valet a new set of tyres then go on the forecourt as demonstraters :shock:
WHY AINT I GOT AN ALL SINGING & ALL DANCING SIGNATURE LIKE BOXY & DRIFTY ?

, Very clever.
A Warranty that COULD last a lifetime.
100,000 miles or until you sell it.
And everyone will remember Warranty & Lifetime and tell all there mates that VX does a Lifetime Guarantee.
I mean, let's be honest, it is possible that someone might buy a VX and have a heart attack at mile No. 99,999 in which case it was actually a life time guarantee.
Nup I'm not buying a new car until there is a guarantee that is real. Until then I'll buy cheap and fix.
Unless of course I win loads of wallop then I'll get a Bristol 'cos that guy is old fashioned down to earth trustable and makes good cars.
Not for sale to Jeremy C however/but.
If you need something done quickly just ask a busy woman then get the f"k out of her way.

In it amazing that vx decide to offer a lifetime warrenty..Hmmm vx should have offered them in the 90's if you ask me to cover all the vx range...In theory new modern day vehicles are meant to be that good they shouldn't really require a warrenty but obviously in real life we do need to cover for poor engineering/build practices
