    My Astra GSi -56k Unsure-

    Well here she is. Picked her up on friday night after swapping her for my old L-reg Calibra 16V(xe).

    She's J plate with 101k, FSH and I'm the 3rd owner from new.












    She's in bloody good nik for a 14 year old pup.

    On the list are 17's (Kei Force 8's) and a drop in height.

    Maybe some Opel badges instead? Yes/No?


    Anyway thanks for looking





    Its now 19/05/05 and have just had a Pi suspension kit and some 17's fitted.

    Here's how she looks now.

    Thats a very nice looking motor thre mate. Personally I like the GSi wheels so would say leave it and just drop it. Opel badges are a lot cleaner looking that the Vx ones so its the way to go.....god I miss my MK3
    Couldn't think of anything good to put in here.

    Straight swap mate, no money wither way.

    Engine is mint. I'll get a mate to take some pics in the week of the engine as I dont own a digi cam yet.

    I love it!

    if you want to change the badges i'd go for some later type "chrome" griffin badges, like the ones on vectra's/astra g's. look much nice imo

    Looking good there mate. Really clean too. Hope whatever you do, you don't ruin it by wacking Lexarse lights on it. shame about the mirrors........

    Could do with parking that rear wiper so it sits level.

    I aint going RTTS mate, it annoys me, there are always idiots up there who ruin it. Last year people were spraying cars with supersoakers which I dont mind if its water in them but it was BRAKE FLUID and urine.

    Be careful mate.

    If ya take a look round the Camborne/Redruth area give us a shout

    Unscrew the retaining bolt, pull the arm from its spline and level it, put it back on the spline and do up the nut.

    Nice mate!

    I'm a Calibra fanatic but I still think the Mk3 GSi is amazing!

    Isn't it great how the standard kit is all smoothed and blended.
