I'll get some next time I see him. I don't see him much but I know he uses as a daily car haha.

It's all done. Corsa vxr engine mildly tuned Corsa Nurburgring suspension with gearbox and lsd Corsa vxr 18inch alloys Rear Nurburgring diffuser Custom exhaust to suit VXR interior Insignia vxr steering wheel Will dig some photos out of it.

A friend already has one ;)

Any benefits over this instead of my NowTV box?

No I don't think they were dear personally, £579 I think the option was. Worth its money all day long. A lot of people just didn't spec them I suspect because at one point they were something like £199 deposit, £199 a month so a standard spec one probably seemed more appealing.

Around £40-£45 to fill up depending on how low you let it go. Never see's less than 300 mile to a tank with her driving it. Even when I drive it, it will do 280 being driven hard constantly. I've seen 378 mile to the fuel light on a motorway run at around 70-80 all the way. A run to...

Yeah yours is Record. Stunning colour!

Not yet it isn't. Not sure if it will become available in the future. They do a "rally beige" although that is very marmite. Record grey is a stunning colour, thats next for the girlfriend I think.

Cheers! On the 500s I think they are usually a titanium colour, these are from an Abarth Punto so white was standard on them ones. Do it! They are fantastic, I love hooning about in it haha. Even if it is baby blue. Which is on yours mate? I thought yours was on these for some reason.

Car finally had its new wheels and tyres fitted so it now looks like this. Esseesse alloys in 17x6.5 et26 with Vredestein tyres. Looks superb! Will get some proper photos taken one weekend.

Yeah they are properly bonkers really. Its a complete no f***s given car lol. Thanks mate much appreciated! Yeah 145bhp standard, i'd guess this one is maybe just punching above 150bhp. Certainly a lot quicker than I expected coming from the GSI. They are okay, just so so common, I know...

Haha why not eh? Might even run it on 15s all round and stick winter tyres on it yet. Depends how bad a winter we get and how much it wants to freeze from the inside out lol. Thanks! That might happen in the future when I can actually pick some wheels other than 1.2s.

Do it! I see it as more of an investment as well as they will hold the value if not go up really. Its properly fun, I've done just over 1000 miles now in just over a week ha!

Thanks for comments every one. Means a lot :). As for the car well it's a pain in the arse but I love it! The fuel tank is the size of an thimble. The heater is like a mouse coughing on you. And people nearly crash into because they cut corners when they think they can see the road is clear...

Thanks mate, wanted one for a long time! That was the plan once he was slightly better, but he took a turn for a first last Sunday and passed away on the Tuesday. But at least he got to see it in person and knew I had bought one.

Cheers mate. It is I think. Didn't come from Ireland though. Just the last owner always put private plates on to take the age away apparently. He upgraded to a low mileage turbo. It can stay for the time being until I can get one with my name in.

So the Astra is sold pending collection. I talked about getting one of these for ages and my Dad kept telling me just to buy one but i was never sure. So I stopped using the Astra for a good few months to save some money and go out and get one, the plan was to get one next year but with my dads...

Looks lovely. As above, interested to see what products you used before applying the reload?
