Why do peeps worry?
Just think that it will fail, cause 9/10 times it will.

no not too bad but was a bit shocked to see that the tester recorded that there was no resistance in the rear brakes at all! all done and dusted for another year now but with a bit of luck, it'll be up for sale in the new year then sold!

You ain't selling the astra? You only just washed it you can't sell it yet.

Nice bit of editing there andy.
Evo's are nice cars but at the end of the day they are Japanese and so Lack the refinement of the european cars (may get smashed for saying this, but, I have my own opinion).
But most european cars lack the sheer acceleration of the jap cars.
But you are the RC of a vauxhall owners club and therefore should be ashamed of yourself for even thinking about it.

yep, i miss my old sr so much and always (nearly daily) curse my wife for making me sell her. she now knows it was a bad idea to make me sell her. was looking at one today in my local tesco's car park and its a local car and if it wernt raining so much, i would have left a note on the window with my number saying i want to buy it!

Oh! thats just cheeky mate, someone did that to me one day. Phoned them back and they came had a good look at the car, then came out with "whats the death on it then mate?" at which point I told them to go forth and multiply. I hate it when people do that.

Ah well I stand corrected then.

I keep seeing a Nova coupe ( ) in Morrisons. If I had the spare cash I'd leave a note as it looks unmolested and fairly solid.
