Wow Sooooo clean.

There's alot of ground clearance on these considering the wheels are up in the arches

very very

Chris's car is mint, I love it. He does all my work on my car for me, well recommended Very cheap too, you'd be stupid not to let them work on your car if you're from Stoke or near, Geoff is sound too!

Knowing Chris though he'll never be happy with that Astra, but I think it's stunning Didn't know he'd LET'd it!

SEE MY SIG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

seriously chris has put an amazing amount of work into this car and it truly is awesome. without a doubt, if you live within 100 miles of us, you'd be crazy not to let them guys work on our motor.

Ahh chris' mk2. stunning that. agreed on GMH being top place to get conversions/work done in the nw region.

should see his mint cav and calibra run about too. at least 1 of them has been put to good use for the powerplant. love it. btw think the rims are vaux anthracite

Lovely

Only thing i'd change is wheels and interior to original and i'd have been tempted to keep it normally aspirated perhaps with throttle bodies.

Terrific car though and does the owner proud.

really nice car he has spent a lot of time and effort getting it the way it is now and it has never got a speck of dirt on it at all. corsa has to live on the road now hes brought the astra back home though!
