|  Back again :) I'm back.  Was on here a good while ago when I was toying with buying an Octavia. Well, I'm back to that idea again, my Astra (Disastra) is getting on my goat already after 6 months. Thinking of a petrol MkII vRS, any options that are a must-have? Definately looking half-leathers (got genuine real fake leather in the Astra), auto wipers/lights (again on the Astra and are a godsend), and xenons (had those on my last Vaux and miss them). are there common enough on the vRS?

| Re: Back again :) Oh, Astras don't suck. It's just the Alfa engine and all it's rubbish emission controls that really let the side down.
