Good plans Brad

I'm planning a GSi front for my black coupe with either GSi 17's, Turbo 17's or those BBS CH 18's. Nothing new, a very popular standard/subtle combo, but looks fully ace!

Why is it a let down when compared to some of its peers? The turbos are infinitely nicer than the standard Astras...

Interesting enough for me, I wouldn't really want to change much. The whole car is fairly honest and boring though. I far prefer having a fast Vauxhall to a slower premium brand at the same money.

Felt cheap getting into one after being in mine - just my opinion
