08456 775 775

Photo type memory for numbers (read or heard), which is handy in situations like this

48hr. They drop it off at ur house then pick it up in 48hrs.

I wonder if i can get one in time to go to the NBO. I wont be going otherwise, as my scoob would go over its mileage needed for service by 500miles (bye bye warranty!!!)

Or you can book online here. You'll also need a 100 pound refundable deposit or 150 quid for the GSi. T & C's say over 25 but no mention of clean licence being needed.

You'll spend the first 47 hours trying to figure out how the indicators work!

I wonder if Vauxhall are OK with this or will they close down the offer given that everyone will start taking the michael (& why not! ) and just using it for a cheap weekend away etc.

I also assume that you can only 'borrow' it once only.

Think I might get one, but then not actually drive it and just leave it parked up where they left it

Cool

Does anyone know if they are offering any 3.2V6 Elite models?

I need to do an airport run in a couple of weeks and could do with the big comfy version.

Thumbs down

I submitted my details on the web, as my car was off the road and it would have been rude not to take Vauxhall up on their kind offer , and to date (a week later) I've not had a phone call from them.

Hello

Yes I took them up on their offer, although I could only get the SRi as the more powerful one was 8-12 weeks waiting!

They called me a week ago, took my licence number and credit card. Since then I haven't heard anything.

I filled out the online form last nite and just had a phone call from them.
Gave me a choice of models Elegance/Elite/SRiTurbo/Club and something else I cant remember.
Car is being delivered on Friday 28th and will be collected on Monday 30th June.

Availability depends on where you live, I'm between York and Leeds and no probs with cars up here.
