 | I never thought I'd own one in all honesty, trying to convince my brother he wants one, he's looking more at golfs and astras though
  can't say I blame him |

 | If RichH etc are viewing, any idea what the best way to clean up the stripes is? They've got a few dirty marks on them.

 | Yeah I'll let it go though, in all honesty that's probably the only thing I hate about it, oh and the fact I've yet to find where the fuck the oil filter is hidden, looks like it'll be going to the garage for servicing, suppose I should anyway to keep the value.
