Me and my other half got this together just over a week ago now and haven't had much time to clean it or take pics. But today i got the bucket out ad gave it a quick wash and took some pics.





Pics came out rather shit for some reason, must have had it on the wrong settings. Better luck next time i suppose 
I personally love it, feels so good to drive compared to my Corsa. Although i do miss the rawness of the Corsa. But not enough to go back to it Loves petrol though 'Should've got the denzel'

Thanks 
Yeah you wren't kidding Nick Although i've been driving like a granny for a couple of days and i'm averaging around 32mpg on the on board computer thing. Which isn't so bad.
But other than that i love it handles better than the corsa and is so nice to be comfy and actually fit in it! Just starting to wonder if i should have got the diesel though. But i'm sure i would be thinking the other way round if i had got one.

Yeah Dean no excuses for ignoring me in town 
Mines the 1.8 20V Turbo, but you can also get the 1.9 diesel. Both pretty similar in performance. But both very different in fuel consumption
