Well,
this week i have done more driving than what i have done in the last 3 months.
Firstly went from here in Sheffield to Northampton to pick some wheels up (250 mile round journey)
Then on Wednesday went to Telford to take a mate to pick up a 4x4 Cav GSi (250 mile round trip)
Then yesterday- went to pick up my new car, the lad was after a straight swap for my old Astra which we did. I went with low expectations thinking it would be a bit messy, but it is again next to near mint condition, interior is spotless and the paint on the car is very good, just needs a good bit of Meguires treatment.
Iv got some plans up my sleave to make it look better, ie smoked front lights, vauxhall mudflaps, different wheels and a better more stealthy exhaust.
as i say, it doenst look much at the minute, but will be looking good soon. 
the cavvy gsi wheels will be forsale or swap for some other 15's or 16's if anyone is interested.

always fancied an 8 valve for some reason.
an 8 valve with a stupid degree cam and a big set of webers appealed to me, but this is even better.
