New north east member - goldenwonder - 25:th-Mar-2019

Hi all,

I'm a recent owner of a 2016 GTC 1.6T LE - in red. Love the car and have been a Vx fan for years, having worked my way up from a Manta, through Carltons, Cavaliers and Omegas, and a Zafira at one point up to this GTC. I've had a couple of older GTCs in the past and haven't found much else comes close for the price!

I love the look of them, and the LE is well equipped, not keen on the fuel economy or the price of the 20" tyres, but I knew this wasn't a budget shopping car! Gearchange is a bit clonky sometimes as well, but I thought the same about my older Vectra 2.0 turbo so I guess its business as usual. I know the M32 box has a terrible reputation but I've got a bit of warranty on this car!

Welcome to VXOC.

You've had a good time with vauxhall's.

I've owned a lot of cars, but Vx seem to be my favourite! I wish I'd kept the Manta now, they seem to be worth a fortune! Mind you, it would probably have rusted to nothing now.
