it certainly is!
Didnt see you in Guildford - sure i would have noticed, you havent been buzzing around in ewell at all have you? If you havent then there really are 3 of us!!
Hey rich,
I know what you mean. If your local to the area im trying to organise an informal meet for all the boys and girls near by - check out the meeting forum for details...
well said barry. And very true!
Over a distance of 40 miles, if you maintain an average 70mph instead of 60mph you will arrive about 5/6 mins earlier. Not really worth it when you think about how stressed you are when you get out of the car is it?

I already have nice clear side repeaters instead of those fugly orange things, but my Phase 1 has them mounted on a 16v badge. What Id like ideally is to have them mounted on no badge at all, like my mates phase 2.(which has 16v in the bump strip - but I dont want that either)
How easy is it...

jeezus.. how fast was he goin? (roughly in relation to yours) that doesnt sound good at all!
I think weve all done silly things from time to time (even me ) but there are some people that have no idea what-so-ever. on my way to work I go up a long stretch of road that is uphill, 2 lanes to...

I usually polish mine twice - cant do any harm. Plus it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside when you do a good job and you can see your face in it!!

LOL :-)
when you say high speeds I presume you mean the legal maximum of 70mph on a motorway ;-) Or is it on one of those private roads I keep reading about!!
Lets not forget that our phase 1s arent the most aerodynamic of cars...check your rear window seals, see if anythings floating loose...
I want an exhaust system thatll make my clio sound like a scooby. I know that may sound strange but it is the sweetest note I have ever heard - better even than a V8 or TVR. Its soft but not loud and you can just tell its summin good...
I dont know if its possible and if the Scooby note is a...
Interactive driving system... isnt that called a steering wheel on other cars?
And if its a brand new car - completely new from the ground up - why call it a Vectra????

Have a similar problem with mine - its standard. If I do a quick pull away it crunches and it can ne a bit tight coming down through the gears - I have to double declutch to get it in...
Yeah, thats just what it sounds like - the high pressure noise. Did yours lose power when too? Thing is its not all the time its only when I give some real welly. I was doing 70 on the m25 this morning and it was fine but last night when I had some prat in an old sunny giving me grief it went...
Its always good to hear a valver kickin some ass. Ive only seen one 1.8 corsa to date and that was in traffic so I cant comment. I have, however, had an Audi A3 1.8T (normal, not quattro or S3) give me some stick and I was more than able to stay ahead of him, unless he was holding back - but I...
Aha! I thought I was going mad - that sounds like waht mine does. It only seems to be when I brake, at first I thought it might be the exhaust knocking, a mate rekcons it might be a warped brake disk but I have no idea but admitadly i havent had a good investigation into it...
It doesnt seem...
