well i thought id finally post some pics up of my car seeing as ive had it for over a year and never posted any pics up of it!

bought it in april 2007 for £1300 from a local garage.

when i bought it, it was:
1.2 8v LS
P - reg
Non sunroof
Non electric windows
Non airbag
Non central locking
Non power steering
61,000miles
4 owners
Standard apart from some dodgy red carbon fibre effect mirrors and lowered 60mm on full gmax setup


Since then ive done/ replaced:
cobra monaco S bucket seats
Sabelt 3 point harnesses
OMP rear roll cage
3 spoke sri wheels
13x7 starmag alloy wheels
15" white astra CDX wheels
Post 97 front bumper
Reiger rs front bumper
Fully smooth boot
Smooth gsi spoiler
Custom rear bumper
Vauxhall smoked wind deflectors
Vauxhall mudflaps
Black carpet
Black doorcards
Black plastics
False floor with 1300w Vibe 12" sub and 1300w Vibe slick amp
Kenwood headunit
White dials with blue LED's
2L 16V brakes
Black Angel eyes
DTM mirrors
De-badged grill
Bad boy bonnet
Magnex oval back box
Sideskirts
New arches
New drivers side wing
New coil pack
New crank sensor
New battery
New sumpNew number plates

its still along way from finished but im hoping to have it done for PVS

i started to blend my arches and rear bumper to my bodywork and its 90% finished i just need to do a final skim of filler and a final re-sand and then its booked in for a respray at the end of the month.

my alloys should be getting a respray aswel just to make them nice and fresh for PVS

still need a couple of more interior plastic bits, black roof liner, carpet the rear sides, black interior pillars and a couple of other little bits and bobs for it to look the way i want it to.

im a bit unsure whether to upgrade to a bit more power or to get a new car next year but i have all the parts i need for upgrade to about 150bhp
although i did have a bit of a strange thought about V-tec'ing it for something different

anyway i'll let the pics do the talking. the one with the wide wheels and reiger bumper was taken over a year ago and how it looked after like the first "stage" over modifying it.
sorry for the crappy pics
