Nice, quite a change from a fiesta to smax lool! What spec have you got?

No not swapping the fiesta keeping that. We are swapping the hubby's vectra blegh dirty Vauxhall. Gone for the econetic like my fiesta does what we need and not too expensive to run. Well happy with it can't wait to pick it up on Friday.

Not in your area but google will probably tell you, guessing your car is from GK Group and they will definitely have a company on their books to retro fit privacy glass so ask them? Or try and find out who they use and go to them directly?

tell him he is never to think of the vauxhall again!

good swap though!

I can't wait for Friday when we pick it up. You can't see it from this picture but on the lot to the side of the s-max is a zafira (blegh) he looked at that and I told him no see Men do listen to the wife's sometimes.

let the hatred towards vauxhall commence! :D

In all honesty the list of faults on our vectra is as long as my arm and the majority of them are electrical.

I find them amusing, my uncles car his wingmirror just decided to fall off one day. One friend who had one his "knob fell off" - he tried to change gear and the gearknob flew backwards into the back seat, that was an amusing day!

Our gear knob used to pop off all the time so I superglued it on lol noting like driving at 70 and the knob coming off.

haha, yup! better still when you grab it and inadvertently lose it and chuck it to the back of the car!

Typical Vauxhalls, crappy wiring across the range.

i must have had a good 1 then,my old mk1 zaffy tdi was bomb proof in the near 2 years i owned it.the only thing that i had to mend was 1 of the rear door straps decided to pull itself out of the door pillar,1 large penny washer later it was all good again.

May be bomb proof but I would want to test that theory :-P

We could try a real bomb ;)

I recon the local bomb squad could support this, or, perhaps we can donate one to mythbusters and see if they can destroy it, before blowing it up in sweet HD high speed cam definition...

Let's hope no-one is monitoring this thread from the big eyes in the sky with amount of times bomb has come up hehe
