LIDL Telescopic Wheel Brace

Okay, price was the deal breaker, €5.99 so in the uk about three quid, looked durable enough and considering my current one was completely jobbed i bought it, had to do the brakes on the 19 so i got my new wheel brace on the go, 1 bolt off, next bolt seemed a little stiff so i gave it maximum egg, needless to say the telescopic part of the wheel brace snapped
Lesson: Don't buy it

I got some semi-tailored car mats today to replace the ones in the Vectra which were knackered, they fit snug and look superb to be honest, only £4.99 too.

The same set was listed as fitting both Vectra's and 19's so I'll get another set for the 19 as it should finish off the interior quite nicely

I bought a pair of windscreen wipers from there the other day, £3.99, seem to work fine! And a rear one from Wilkinsons, £1.50, seems ok too.
