well not much has been done. only a couple of exhaust rubbers and a new coolant hose. have been punching louvres at work tho. planning on cutting some in to the bonnet to help keep things cool. cant really spend much time on it tho until i get the b*stardin corsa fixed and flogged. wheels should be on by the weekend tho

If your looking to get it remapped there is a guy out this way in Mid-Calder that done my origional Vectra with a Superchip remap, was very good and recommended.

**Lugy** · 07-08-2007, 20:23

il bear it in mind tho il prob get it either live mapped or on the r/rd.
well after rivalling wayne in the "not get any work done" stakes i finally started doing something the wheels are turning white.

they should be on by the end of the week ready for some more antisocial noise making. lol.

also got bits for my corsa! ie new front bumper, lower grille, foglight and inner wheel arch. just got to get it painted, put back together and punted! then the real fun can start!

**Benn** · 07-08-2007, 20:24

engine changed? cool,

looks nice dude,

**Lugy** · 07-08-2007, 20:31

yeah i never had the joy of it tho, or the expense lol. think an edit with a spec could/should be in order

**Benn** · 07-08-2007, 20:33

cool,
even better then,
looks nice, should look good slammed on the white mv6 rims.

***Tom Williams*** · 07-08-2007, 20:37

those rims will look sawesome

**Lugy** · 07-08-2007, 20:41

tom, you lust a 3.0, go on build one! listen to the voices. **** home improvements! lol.

***Tom Williams*** · 07-08-2007, 20:43

home improvements, got to have a house first!!

**Lugy** · 07-08-2007, 20:52

see you've no reason not to. lol. the way im figuring is might as well enjoy a car like this while fuel is still affordable.

***Tom Williams*** · 07-08-2007, 20:56

I enjoy it as it is, and I have a small road trip plan to enjoy it some more

**Lugy** · 07-08-2007, 21:10

up to scotland again? you know you want too. actually see thing instead of driving in the dark without sleep for days! lol.

**Lugy** · 10-08-2007, 14:10

well got the wheels on. looks sweet imo.

**Melv** · 10-08-2007, 14:12

looking good. will see it in the flesh/paint soon too.

Dave Dempsey · 10-08-2007, 14:16

Wheel make a huge differance. There one around this way with the MV6 rims in silver they really do suite the Vectra, look even better in white as well.

stevenwoody · 10-08-2007, 14:38

The whole car looks mint

dearing5 · 10-08-2007, 14:41

**Lugy** · 10-08-2007, 14:47

the car is slowly getting better after my neighbours almera mating incident. got a new track rod and tca, car is away this weekend to get the bumper repaired and the front end repainted. also put some face lift headlights on it, bought new door mouldings all round and a face lift gsi aerial. should have them on early next week then time for more painting and maybe put a couple of new doors on it. il get pics to follow.
