Thats the Blue Astra Coupe turbo pictured in the above with the wide arch kit.
Had a 2.0 Turbo, but he put a V8 in it  Name was Pete, older chap in his 50's but he was a sound guy. Really nice chap, lived in Kent indeed. Last I heard, he'd sold it and IIRC it went abroad. MAJOR work went into it though, all done at home. He also fitted all the kit, it came in 27 pieces, and said it was an utter nightmare to fit. Nothing lined up properly and everything needed adjusting (sounds like the BAT widearch corsa kit then 
AS for Rentons cossie BMW. Mega car, but also the reason he disapeared from Redline

Just searched for pics of it, thread on Passion Ford said that he sold it after a blowout on the motorway to someone who fixed it up and is using it on the track.
