1990 Vauxhaull Nova-- it never had the power to get up hills which i regularly found intensely embaressing. And for a few months near the end the cylinders kept dropping off hourly. Sometimes i`d be driving it and i`d feel the power loss and i`d be running (crawling) on 2 cylinders. The plugs would sh1t up that much on standing that i started taking the plugs out whenever i left it anywhere and putting them back in whenever i used it again. I swear that is the truth!
Vauxaull Astra hybrid thingy. It had a larger carburettor put on by the previous owner (not to my knowledge) so it accelerated like a motherf*cker but flooded when ticking over in traffic. The ignition also decided to die when you were miles from home. One rush hour i was waiting in heavy traffic at a big junction and the lights turned green. The oncoming traffic started to flow into our road.
I noticed one car seemed to be heading in a straight line for me. Seconds passed , it still was.
It continued to follow that straight line and buried itself in my front right wing and slid right down the side of the Astra and into the car behind (old fella had collapsed--tw@t got off with it as well as it was decided he was not negligent cos he collapsed out of the blue) Bye Bye Astra!!!
never , NEVER buy a vauxhaull!!!!!!
