Best bargain Iv had in a while for the car. Opted for the boot mat as mine is slowly ruining with the pram. Do you know how the mats clip in?

I was going to but decided against it as my boot mat is ruined already aha! In the front footwells do you have two plastic bits sticking upwards? They just push onto there. Stops them from sliding around :)

It'd be worth changing the fronts and backs and then you know it's sorted

I like the hubcaps on newer cars, steel wheels are all 5 spoke so you can't see them
Agree with the hubcaps. They look just like alloys with all the benefits of steel wheels!! Less chance of cracking, none of that bubbly corrosion that ruins the look of alloys.

Aha your right barra! I see where your coming from it's just they look well too small to be on the car. Needs to be at least 17" or bigger

Well I have had my brakes fitted today :) pedal feels a lot better now :)

When the car was in the air we had a look around for the oil leak and it's coming from the turbo. Guy reckons it's turbo seals going :( also the front springs are apparently Sri springs, the rear ones well... One is a standard vectra spring and the other one is a standard astra spring... Looks like a set of lowering springs are in need :) aha also need 4 new tyres as mine are pretty poo.

Looking at the front bumper what splitter fits it? Looks like one has been removed in the past but not sure which is standard to go on.
