Picked up my new car today, 250 mile round trip but was well worth it.
Brought the car off Tomas who is a member off here, and a top bloke
Got the car in time for pvs which is cool
Here's a couple of pics, let me know your opinions good and bad
Cheers Chris

The engines hydraulic lifters are noisey

Sad day to see it go! So many good times were had in this car and so many good memories. HAD to let it go to another C.S member who'd take care of it, continue the hard work and keep the same theme (swore he wouldn't stick a great dirrty fiberglass kit on it lol).
Thanks for the top comments guys, a suitable end to a v.good (if expensive) chapter in my life.
Time to begin modifying the Astra H, Sport Hatch I have
