Hi all

 

New to this forum. Very useful. I've just bought a 2002 2.3 Ghia auto (yesterday). Imported from Singapore, seems OK so far but a little 'flat' performance compared to the 2.8 Ghia which I had last. Suspension seems softer as well.

 

Anyone any experience of imports? Performance versus other models?

 

Cheers

Would have been Boz above but someone beat me to it

Welcome,

 

Ours is an import 2.3 as well, although a little less exotic than yours (Irish market vehicle via Belgium). As all Galaxy's come off the same production line I'd be surprised if there are any major differences, just minor spec' changes. If yours is a Ghia does it have Cruise Control, power rear vent windows, swivelling seats etc ?

I had a 2.3 and a 2.8auto, and the 2.3 felt far nippier in town than did the clunky heavy 2.8,

it should drive like a typical 16v tbh...
