Vauxhall Vectra, at it again!!

After a post regarding the Vectra GSI being faster than the M6, someone's at it again.
In my recent edition of the BMW Car Club's mag, a Vectra driver from Germany, wrote in to complain about a UK Member holding him up in his Vectra, whilst driving a 3 series (unknown varient) on the Autobahn.
He apparently could not pull away from the Vectra so had to concede and pull over, letting the Vectra steam away from the BMW, the final comment was, "if BMW owners want to go fast, then get a Vectra!" so there you have it.

Anyhow, just looking up my local dealer
.va..vau..vaux.
sorry can't do it.

Andy,

Wouldn't have surprised me if there wasn't a white van behind the Vectra flashing to get past
