luckily you cant see the passenger side one normally as its hidden by number plate. i actually have a black one aswell but nobody will ever see that unless your underneath the car.

It's a well known car though, I knew of it long before you started using this forum again. People appreciate it for what it does not for how it looks, although it is a nice looking car don't get me wrong. Trailer it down

todays un-exciting update consists of the following....
rear light loom from a corsa. got one from scrap yard. basically, instead of using a trailer board when towing the corsa. going to make the back lights on the car work instead just so its a bit better. awesome or what. will get the loom made up in the week.

yeah id say it would be a lot better than crail for grip etc. just a long way to go to pay a fortune to do 3 runs on the strip really.

well nothing much exciting has been happening.
corsa passed its mot, needed a side light bulb. vectra had to be taxed which is annoying. corsa managed a whole whopping 91 miles to a tank of fuel. awesome mpg.
so this is what im going to be working on shortly
next week all the seats and wiring etc will be removed and i will get the floor painted in the car as it annoys me. need to finish cutting the rear seat mounts off as i did one side about 2 years ago and never got round to doing the other. possibly also might make a new cardboard radio as ive listened to phil collins enough now. also need to secure those metal floor matts down as they rattle, well passenger one does as my foot stops drivers one obviously.
once floor is painted can start getting sorted with a new fuelling set up. lift pump, swirl pot and 2 bosch motorsport pumps is the plan. hope to get on with that some time soon.
bye.
