Either sell and get an astra VXR, or get coilovers, miltek exhaust, paint alloys anthracite, courtenay hose kit with dump valve, but with the car being 7 years old and losing value every day, not sure if it's worth it...
edit - astra gsi btw.

a VXR will lose more value
Agreed, but depends how much you pay etc. I bought my GSi for £5k and had a new turbo fitted (£1400 bill @ vaux, under warrenty) and struggling to sell for £4250, although I know the mileage is unfavourable, if not getting a VXR i'll do those plans and use/abuse it on track until it goes bang.

Depends how much money I manage to save up, but I would quite like to get a full Piper exhaust. Might not have money for much else tbh
