So its been an interesting couple of weeks of leaking steering rack and hunting and thinking.

Did a deal on the octavia - part exed against a 2009 160bhp Opel Insignia SE!

The offer was too good and there was very few cars aroind i was interested in.

Still be here though, as the citigo isnt going anywhere and i renewed freedom for 2yrs anyway last week

Best of luck with the Insignia, plenty of poke with the 160 engine!  I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for that around Clonmel

Cheers i ha taken a greenline superb out for a drive last week, a 2010, but it turned out another salesman had a deposit taken on it. It was a nice drive but only the pd105, so nothing like the shove the insignia has. Money i got for the octavia was really good tbf, given the rack issue, and the boot lifter still borked. So overall, both i and the dealer were happy. He'll be able make a few quid on the octy and made a few no dubt out me
