As some of you might know i had my corsa xe up for sale because i couldnt justify spending the money on it that i wanted to, After a few people messing me about last monday it sold leaving me with £1500 towards my new car which i decide was going to be a turbo, after looking through the net i decided on either an ibiza cupra or a mk4 astra read a few bad things about the cupras so decided i was staying vaux. Next decision Sri Turbo or Coupe Turbo.
Last Tuesday the decision was made when Me the missus And Donvaux set off up to birmingham to view a Titan Gold Coupe, when i saw it on autotrader it grabbed my attention straight away as most of the coupes in this colour are the 1.8 version. Arriving I decided i loved the colour and after a bit of haggling the deal was done and the car was to be picked up on the following saturday.![]()

So saturday came and slightly hung over from friday me and don headed of up to birmingham again to get it.
Im really happy with it and have now sorted a few things which were used to drop the price, the main being the eml was on which turned out to be a bad earth on the map sensor causing the boost to cut.
Anyway i have a few things i would like to do to it over time which i will update as and when i get things done.
Just a few i have in mind at the moment are.
Get the paintwork right feels a bit rough and unpolished at the moment
Get the wheels refurbed
2.2 airbox
Phase one remap
Milltek exhaust system
35mm drop all round
Private plate next month
And probably a few other things
A few photos of the car when i got back saturday and a few little things ive done so far
