Ok, so as a rough guestimate, how much would the following cost to have done?

Full service
Brakes (pads and discs)
2 x Tyres
MOT
Tax (gonna be £245)

Just so I have some ammo when I call them back.

Cheers
 
Wow, pads and disc's only around £50, just cost me £200 for a set for the vectra, front and rears !!!
 
i did say GUESS. but looking for mine £71..still not 200 though!
 
For disc, drums and pads, the hole lot? Still a bargain!!
 
Ah, right, was gonnay say, still a good price and I dount the drums need replacing that often, just the shoes.

That europarts website is pretty informative, makes the decision process a hell of alot easier know I can get cheap parts online etc...I like it :)
 
i just found it, used ebay for parts before,

i like the free delivery part best.. ok so ourder parts monday to get them for the weekend... simples
 
Well, either way, parts are relatively inexpensive which makes the thought of owning a Terrano II more appealing, that and putting veggie oil through the 2.7....well I seem to be even seeling the idea to myself..lol
 
i know where a swb is going to be coming up for sale soon, any good?
 
Thanks, but I need a LWB, dog and young son amoungst other things. I have two to choose from, the P reg 1997 that's advertised for £1500 but am gonna offer £1000, but I won't be doing anything until I've seen the 2002 3.0 SVE I've got coming my way for possibly £3500, think my mind is made up, just want to look at all options before buying.

Had two and a half years of worry motoring with the vectra, so am being extra cautious this time.
 
Trouble is you can hardly ever second guess the MOT costs:eek:
Could be a stack of welding for example:augie
It needs to be cheap as its only a month left on it OR as I say get them to put mot on it or at least get you the fail sheet if it blows it:thumbs
Dont forget CASH is king, so if you get the horn for the 3.0 stick 3000 in one pocket and hide the rest. Then when all negotiations have not gone your way, pull out your wad:sly Wave 3000 in his face for a quick deal:naughty
Then be hard, walk away if he refuses, he'll ring you later:thumbs
 
Yeah, I know exactly what you're saying, MOT could be expensive even if she's owned it for the past 9 years. Still fancy a challenge though, but how much of a challenge the old one's gonna present is an open-ended question!!

Have yet to see the newer one, but being a 3.0 already puts me off for some reason, think I prefer something older so I can do what I like withit without worrying about value.

Done 800 odd miles this weekend driving round the country and I can count the number of Terrano's I saw on the road with one hand!! Loads of X-Trails etc, but incredibly very few Terrano's!
 
3 litres are good from all accounts . and 30+ mpg is pretty good for a 4x4.... but for me id buy it and tidy it up mot it and make a bit of dosh on it ... there is room for an easy grand there . it'll look better in your pocket than someone Else's

put the money into a 2.7 tdi... if your not in a rush you will get a tdi for a grand needing some tidying and all of a sudden your driving around for free. even better when your running on veg oil too
 
Ok, 3.0 won't be looked at until tomorrow now, but it's got 101k on the clock for a 2002 model, should I be worried?
 
over 12k a year, normal driving i suppose. id not be worried about the engine, but id be checkng everything else closely....is it the V6 3.0? if so, they are tough engines.
 
Nope, it's the inline 4, SVE model. I know it won't take veggie oil, but it's an 02 with 101k on the clock, new rear tyres for £3500, mot next month mind, but as long as it's sound mechanically then it's a good deal as far as I can make out.
 
Hi, mine was 5k from a dealer with 92k miles on it (3.0ltr sve auto). Only had it since Feb, apart from an ignition switch bit and arb drop links all good. I been busy changing oils etc, dealer told me he would give it a real service not like other dealers, however all he did was change the engine oil, as when I changed the oils most came out black/grey etc.
 
Yep, that's what I plan to do, see what needs doing to get it through the MOT then do a real good going over.
