UPDATE:
26th April
There is a new member to the fleet. Ben (Who owns the Corsa Van and had his Scooby stolen) has just picked up his new car from his local Vauxhall dealership
Say hello to number 36 Vauxhall Astra VXR Nurburgring Edition
The happy boy and his 2 ladies
He now has 2 white Vauxhall 2.0 Turbo FWD cars
And before you ask, it won't be staying standard for too long.
Watch this space....

No It makes a noise low down but when opened up its pathetic.... Will get a De-CAT'd Exhaust system some time later this year. That should help

UPDATE:
3rd May 2008.
This ones Skoda heavy im afraid. Basically my brake calipers were starting to look a bit tatty
So yesterday I decided to wip the wheels off and give them 2 coats of Hammerite Smooth Green
And whilst I was at it I washed & waxed the wheels
Then today I got a bit carried away with washing it
5 hours later and I had finished
So I thought I might as well take some pics for my troubles before it gets dirty again tonight. lol
The missus's new corsa (She brought it off one of my mates)

UPDATE:
12th May 2008
Modball Stickers have arrived..... Although the Van has lost oil pressure which needs looking at asap. May have to take the Fabia if there's a major problem
And we gave my girlfriends new corsa a good clean and ClarBar'd. She's very happy with it so far and she's already thinking of a couple of mods
Thanks again to Paul off this site for selling it her

No worries mate, glad your missus is liking it.
I am enjoying my new turbo power :-) just noticed bens astra has a extra solid bit of pipe from the intercooler to the throttle body, with what looks like a sensor in it. I don't have one on my engine :-( any ideas what it is?

Oh yes she is, she's whizzing about everywhere in it! lol. Need to get those centre caps off you though.
Im guessing it'll be either a MAP sensor or Air Inlet temp... one of the two.
