Had it a few months now and hadnt taken any pics since i bought it ... Not that ive really done anything to it apart from fit some Insignia washerjets.  But everyone is allowed a cleaned car thread 
They didnt turn quite out as id hoped , think the shitty light is mainly to blame.
I do have some things i want to do to it, but not much anytime soon as its funds allowing.

Its a nice motor tbh .. But it probably has more cons than pros but then most Perfomance cars do. Love it on a run , such a cruiser and the engine really is effortless to get the car moving to some silly speeds without too much fuss and noise. I hate the indicator stalk but i do on all of the new vauxhalls. i allso hate the creaky armrest bit near the handbrake,(spose it is just a vectra still). The sat nav is a pain in the arse to use imo so generally dont bother and use manstinct .
im allso tempted to buy Some 18s as imo the car has less feel with the 19s and i do like to go on a drive now and again and throw it about abit  .. would bennefit massively with a atb/lsd of somekind but its not shabby for a fatty .. and i think its genuinely fast .. or atleast it feels it but ive not really had a play with anything other than a gimp in a 320d bmw
Its allso quite exclusive which is one of the main things that atracts me to them. aswell as them being abit of a bargain imo.

Yeah it likes a drink .. especially if youre heavy footed .. but saying that its doing better than i thought it would , i get 24mpg average going to work and back and on a run it gets 35mpg at about 75mph and can touch 40+ mpg doing around 50-60mph .. shyt around town tho
edit: yes has 30mm Eibach Springs

Last figures (haven't been in the car for over a month now) were around 21-22mpg for a full tank, mixed road types and mixed amount of thrashing.
Meh. It's only petrol.
