Couldn't agree more! Loved how clean Monty was and how he spent so much attention to the little details!

No updates... Haven't bothered for last 6 months or so... Main reason as people have gathered is he is being broken, most parts gone! I will put parts for sale that are left soon! Issues with chassis and I believe the B chassis cannot go any further unless I use it for 1/4miles which I don't want too... As said on FB there are several cracks now...

I will be enjoying the Astra VXR and Corsa VXR-R for a bit!

I have ordered a brand new BMW M5 in Alpine white, 20"s and H/K so I want to enjoy this too! I will stay around but as people have seen I don't come on forums as much as I did...

I miss something?

It's the general shell, I could spent a lot on it but I don't believe I will get the gains I require so plan at present is to take time off and they possible move on to a different model maybe Higly tuned VXR or something like that!

Dale, apparently you're using uprated top mounts on your gaz coilovers. I've also been told to avoid cutting you've fitted these upside down? Is this true? If so could you give some more info
Please

It is and has been since I first built it, there's plenty of pictures through the thread...

Yer you used yours for 1/4mile though and I would rather do it now instead of spending money on cage and fitting etc...

I used mine on the road and B road abusing more than 1/4 miles anyway. It's done something like 30k miles in 8 years since I bought it and made it a c20let
