I need something more reliable and certainly more comfortable to drive. Also, I can't manage a manual gearbox very well right now so the Xantia will suit my needs perfectly.
Don't get me wrong. I'm more than a bit gutted about the Pineapple too. I've invested a lot of time and money in it but the oil pump going so soon after a 14 month off-the-road period was really the last straw. You know I practically begged for help across the three Vaux forums I subscribe to and never got one offer of help. So with limited mobility, and now low funds, I have no option but to let it go.
