After some time since my first post about this car, I have finally remembered to get some photos up.

P Reg Vauxhall Vectra GLS 1.8 16v

Current plans:
Set of 17" Alloys
Lowering (maybe)
Clear side repeaters

But apart from that...who knows

Anyway, here it is:

Nout wrong with Ecotec's, they will last a long time with just basic maintenance, not exactly bullet proof like a derv, but one of the better petrol's!

Lookin nice and shiny now fella, I wont be down the rock tonight, will see it at the next meet though I guess?

Thought I would give you a quick update.

MOT Monday 14/07 @ 10am, should fly through it (so i will have the car at the next meet)


And the tyre has arrived for the alloys, so they will be fitted Monday afternoon.

Here's a pic of them:

I have 5 of these now (1 as a spare)


Pics to follow on Monday of them fitted.
Will also put some pics up of the blue dash kit
