    More Vectra Stuff

    Ok, I've made it pretty clear that I love my current car. If we are not going to get the facelift but possibly get the 'D' then I have to brutally honest and say that at the moment I won't be buying an 'Opel' when it comes time for me to change. The pics of the 'D', I'm sorry, don't do anything for me.

    The red one doesn't look too bad but the silver one just ruins it. It looks like a design that BMW had for their current 3 series and then discarded it.

    It looks like a GM-DAT car rather something Opel would bring out. Don't be surprised if the Astra I/Mk VI has similar design.

    That looks suspiciously like a photoshop of a Mazda 6

    The roofline at the back doors of the red one is way too low - most people would be smacking their heads getting in. The silver one is actually just a computer pic of a mule going round the Ring without all the camouflage, so its going to be the most "correct" pic.

    I think it would be good to see in the flesh (hopefully Holden will bring it over) - pics (especially com-gens) sometimes dont do the car justice. I just hope they are wrong about that Bangle-ised Boot!!

    I was just looking at those photos, especially the silver one, and first thoughts were, hmmmmmm a hint of a Mercedes CLS.........

    but someone beat me too it!
