good luck haha why the astra will be ok you just best not wash it

The rover 220 coupe i've been given the last owner made a mess of the rear arches with filler

rust is back haha gonne hit them hard like i did my mk3 astra

**RobJenko** · 16-12-2007, 16:19

im sure it'll be ok, just the rear brakes(they are not bad but not great) it'll fail on if anything.

welsh andy · 16-12-2007, 17:13

thank god ive done mine 4 nother yr

fingers crossed

**Benn** · 16-12-2007, 17:27

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

**RobJenko** · 17-12-2007, 15:53

well its been and ive got the results and its failed!

**RobJenko** · 17-12-2007, 15:54

but only on the brakes like i thought so iv had them done and now got it back with a full new mot!

welsh andy · 17-12-2007, 16:50

not bad at all en just failing on brakes

**RobJenko** · 17-12-2007, 16:54

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!

Nutty_Turbo · 24-12-2007, 13:54

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

**RobJenko** · 24-12-2007, 14:35

may go now its mot'd. i got to tax it in the new year, will get the corsa through a mot i think then maybe sell both and put the cash towards an evo!! (Beacuse I am too much of a nancy boy for Vauxhalls!!)

Nutty_Turbo · 28-12-2007, 18:55

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.

Adam_Luce · 28-12-2007, 19:22

i think he should just give his astra to andy

and drive the corsa

Nutty_Turbo · 28-12-2007, 19:56

yeah Or give it to you and andy have yours. lol

**RobJenko** · 28-12-2007, 21:23

at andys editing! i can have an evo as i currently own 3 vauxhalls (corsa b gsi, corsa c and the astra) but if the b and the astra go for an evo, then a nova will appear aswell for me! was looking at 1 today !

**RobJenko** · 28-12-2007, 21:24

and andy is welcome to my astra, he just gota swap some cash my way to get it. (aprox £1200 !!)

Nutty_Turbo · 28-12-2007, 22:29

You looking at a nova again? your gluten for punishment mate. lol

**RobJenko** · 28-12-2007, 22:32

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!

Nutty_Turbo · 29-12-2007, 10:28

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.

**RobJenko** · 30-12-2007, 19:17

my one i keep seeing (always driving the other way!) is a white 3 door on a j plate. looks like a 1.2 but im sure theres something bigger under the bonnet as i sometime see it parked up with a sport the same as mine thats got a c20let in it! its got a little bit of surface rust on the bottom of the pass door and on the rear pass arch (very little though) and its got a gsi black boot pannel and black cav gsi rims! i want it.
