Excuse the poor image quality, poor photographic skills and poor lighting on most photographs.

i was talkin to the guy when i was there, he says there is going to be a limited run of 100 of them, it has 2 ecu maps, normally its 160bhp, and then you have a button on the dash which brings the second map into play and you then have close to 200.

Yeah I spoke to the guy about that white Astra for a bit. He was talking about the VXR Performance Centre which is basically going to bridge the gap between dealer fit mods and proper tuning stuff. Told him I was booking my H convertible in when I bought it 
Ross I wasn't really impressed with the pics, 2.8 lens maybe but that body still is too noisy to up the ISO, which is really pretty necessary in there. There's not much sharpness in the whole set. Might have to see if there's any 5D kicking about used yet.

No saw Malcolm Wilson, he's in the Focus pic. I kept laughing as he reminded me of the prime minister out of little britain.

thats what I lacked though in my zoom was a large aperture. my 17-85 is 4-5.6. I've got my 30mm f1.4 but not great when people walk in front of you. I see a couple of media guys with 1d's mostly 1dmk2'sand a few 2o's too
