makes me miss my VXR so much

Dont miss the bills however, new owner has somehow fried the clutch AGAIN and had problems with the spark plugs. The ones GM used to supply were fine, but they have switched from NGK to bosch which the higher boost of the remap was blowing out. Paid to get sparks changed, then had to pay to get them swapped all over again for a set of NGKs which were £70 !

I take it you don't have to remove the intake manifold to change them in the GM V6 though? ...you do with the Ford one in my Jag, ...I'm not sure you do with the same unit in the ST220 though as the intake manifold design was different. PITA if you ask me.

That's rather clean!

There's an Astra VXR outside one of the dealerships in town, Toyota I think. Looks really nice . Stickered up at £11K. Been there a few weeks now.

Looks great.

If yuo take of that Thorney sticker would you get sued for............erm... something?

Sticker must be worth a good 20hp.

[Fr0dders]

its an expensive job, and the new owner had to pay to have it done twice

Princey a mate of mine is looking to buy a VXR and I know you're selling, any chance you could email an advert as such (copy and paste of your old ebay ad if you still have it?) and contact details to the email in my trust?

I'd love a VXR or ST but I'm a few quid short myself yet lol

 

[Lobwan]

My first car, had it for a few months. Boring as hell, but does the job!

 

[Coldzero]

Love the VXR Princey, looks awesome.

I do like the look of the Astra VXR, but that centre console Might have looked better in piano black like the Corsa VXR.

Newer ones have the centre console in piano black (I can't remember when it was changed though - possibly around the same time the burg came out).

A few updated ones of the lexus, had the front and rear bumpers repainted as they were a bit scabby around the edges.

And a few with the MR2 Turbo before it goes away until next year

Thats a clean old beast

 

[JamesM]

Still work in progress (fog light has been removed as the oil cooler is located behind it, can be refitted though if need be)

With this going on this weekend along with the rest of the system

Nice 500. Shame the colour combination isn't very imaginative, but it does look quite smart
