Thats Dest's on VxON... the exhaust and wheels ruin it as does the smoked indicators on the front.
Lovely colour tho.

the shape and look of the car, in my opinion, is sexy. in my opinion the interior of new vauxhalls is tacky vibs, but you seem content with. different people have different opinions, you must realise that!

i do quite like the cav turbo, looks lovely and its a shame they are becoming so rare. i agree they are looking dated like vibs say, but then i prefer the dated look to the new look cars (except astra mk5 really love that)

I dont get it either
I must have square eyes of something because to me that resembles a skip with a length of 5" Drain pipe sticking out of it
