perhaps we need a mk3oc/AOC joint track day? that could be fun :) Kirsty ;)

btw the "'snot standard" thing is a pun too - the 888 is referred to as "snot" lol

not defending hun, having a chuckle. Just said she's not standard lol. Enjoyed it thoroughly too, not out of joint it was a good laugh. We kinda hoped you'd pull into the services after us and say hi but you didn't (hence why we passed you again ;) ) I certainly didn't mean it as a dig, sorry...

'snot standard ;) :laugh:

I'm "undertaker"'s other half (told you about the exhaust lol) my mk3 at www.ukshires.net/glsri.htm sorry haven't been on mk3oc in absolutely ages. Hence me appreciating your mk3 a lot more than my lad was ;) As for pulling away, well in the driving conditions there were other people to take...

well thats a very tasty astra you have there. There doesn't seem to be many of us astra enthusiasts in the north east region (although Kenn from this site is from middlesborough way with his nice pineapple.) www.astraownersclub.com (where I usually hang out) has a few north east members but...

Hiya Kev pointed me to this thread (from an AOC "spotted & flyered" thread that I started) I'm from County Durham too (haven't been on mk3oc for a while myself) currently living near Barnard Castle though. On Sunday the 18th November there was an Astra Owners Club meet in Yorkshire that I...

yay, looks great from out here in the sticks (no orange town-glow to mess it up!) the earth shadow looks kind of red, they said it would in the paper.

I found in scrappy1 a complete set of unused (still with tags on) car mats, and an AA road map, both of which were nice and useful, oh and some polishing cloths and some pens. All useful stuff. :D Only bad thing was about 200 fag ends... :( Kirsty

yup car looks nice outside the house, planning on getting some posed pics of her about the place at some point. About the grille - I had the same GSi bumper on scrappy1 and swapped it onto scrappy2, but ever since I had the first astra (phase 1 merit) I've wanted a V grille - hated the horrible...

bloody hell! I'm insanely jealous. Perhaps the previous owner died and so no one but him knew what was in there. If it was too difficult to get into, people dealing with the estate may just have assumed it to contain agricultural stuff and not bothered looking I suppose. What a find though...

Well I haven't been online much for quite a while, and even now I'm on dial-up as I still haven't got broadband sorted at the new place (sorry BT still haven't sorted my broadband grr!) but a lot has gone on in the past 6 months. I quit my job with the evil boss and landed my dream job at...

Photos Addded She hasn't had the work carried out yet or been cleaned up, but here's how she stands at the moment, will update with finished photos when she's ready to go but advance enquiries are welcome on the contact details above. Cheers, Kirsty :D

just seen it today! Can't wait to get the GLSRi on the rollers and see what she's doing. Better wait till I've got the airbox on though *hehe* currently running with only the top half of an airbox and no filter (eeek!) got a K&N waiting to go on though. She's De-catted but still running a...

It isn't mine but belongs to a friend of mine and I said I'd mention it on mk3oc for him. Coming up for sale around the end of february: - R reg 1.6i mk3 astra LS 5 door - spectral (metallic) blue - same colour as Kev's cesaro for those in the know - sunroof, central locking, electric...

when my parents sold the house in the UK and moved to France late 2005, I moved into my sister's house with her and her husband - it worked great as she and my brother in law worked night shift while I worked days, so we rarely saw each other to annoy each other! I moved in with Brian in...

hmm ok or just forgo leccy windows and central locking I guess. One visit to fleabay for some leccy motors and locks I suspect LOL ta hun

right we've been trying to fit electric windows and c-locking to a 95 5door merit, all the gubbins and looms have gone in the doors fine, BUT the loom on the car dosent seem to support it, ie, theres only 2 wires going to the door plugs (speaker wires). has anyone else done any upgrade like...

there's a local lad round here who has a ford focus orange GSi, it's stunning - I see him down Teesside park on a wednesday night most weeks but haven't been able to photograph it yet as it's always too dark :( Kirsty :)

bit secret what I'm doing with them, but all will be revealed, the saloon is exactly as it says: the V5 reads "GLS 1.8", it's boot badging says "1.4" and it's engine bay contains a normally aspirated diesel of some sort, possibly from a bedford midi van at a guess (???) so I was wrong about the...
