Started off with a 1.4 16V sport for my first car then got an arden blue 1.6 16V with a dbilas etc...sold it an got an escort RS turbo which was the biggest mistake of my life...

After straying for a year a decided to get another sport,after about 3 months of searching found this,lady owned for nearly 7 years and full and i mean full vauxhall service history and reciepts for everything the car has ever been fitted with...

The car has...

1.6 16V Ecotec
Kent fast road cams
4 Branch manifold
Full magnex with de-cat
BMC CDA carbon airbox
Magnecor leads
Denso irridium plugs
Lowered 60mm all round on shocks and springs
Front and rear strut braces

On the recent RR day at hypertech it only made 109.7 bhp which was terrible,but the cars i have smoked and sat door to door with i dont think this is accurate...

Plans are...

Inlet of some sort
Chip
Fit my V6 brakes
Get the car tidyed up for summer

Bought a valver recently that i was going to use as a doner for mine but have decided to stick with the 1.6 over the summer and maybe take it off the road after and do a big LET build or tb's on the 1.6...not decided yet

Not the best pictures,not had a chance to put them all on the new laptop since moving house

i do really like this car. Simple but nice.

109BHP isnt surprising, i doubt your get more than 130 without major mods.

Brand spanking centre caps x4

Decided to stick with standard brakes as this is going to be the poser and the valver for blasting about in...

Also winning these red dot grooved discs on ebay for £10.50 kind of made my mind up



Also thats my uncle finished painting my morettes so get pics up tommorow...

Getting all these bits and bobs done and fitted for the show season
