on the car... bit of centre but oh well :p


and the car as it is now...
Wow....! Yuck! :D

actually I quite like that grille, it's my favourite of the mods you've done. I reckon you should now 'smooth it' euro style - since you've picked out certain details, I feel you need to get rid of some of the standard detailing or it's just starting to look a bit overloaded. I'm not convinced that red goes with sophisticated silver very well. Might as well have pink! But each to their own!

You deserve congratulations for just getting on with it... (y)

I drove the 1.6 astra... it was slow low down, but on the motorway at 70-90, its actually quite quick :confused:

in 4th though... not 5th :p

and id be about 20mpg worse of :D

looked at a 08 plate pre reg 120mjdynamic today.... 9.9k with 3.6k trade in, and found a 57 plate 150mj sport for 9.5k

decisions decisions :idea:
 
Sweet...........I like(y)but too many scorpions

it was sat in the car park at the car people when i went in with all its decals on still :p

kind off miss it in a way :eek: its a car thats given me so many memories that im going to treasure and never forget... (well some i will)....

thunderbird 6 is one of the very last memorable ones (adamcot remembers :p)
 
Dude, the car is beautiful, but painted badge or grill or doormirrors is what some boyracer would do with his civic 92'. ;)
