So when someone inevitably asks, is it a Vauxhall or a lotus, what will you say? ;-)

Looks awesome, what tyres did you opt for? I'm thinking of changing my wheels for more tyre options.

If an Elise owner asks, I will exclaim that it is a Lotus (compared to his!!!). I have the OE Bridgestones on the front and Kumho KU36 225/45 17 on the rear. They are pretty sticky and were a steal for £55 a side from Germany.

Very clean for the mileage, did the remap make much of a difference?

Flying machine now, I prefer the 120's, they drive better low down revs, less issues... Remap has just perfected things (should be near 160bhp mark)... Egr delete is a must...

The last owner did the delete on mine. 160 is a nice figure, not too much to be stressing components.

A few of mine over the years....

Nova 1400


Corsa SRi CDTi


Vectra 3.0 V6


Astra 2.2 #1


Astra 2.2 #2


And finally the Cavalier I have at the moment (from it's Spanish adventure)...


Currently I'm looking into getting another Cavalier to swap all my SRi parts into due to the dreaded tin worm.

[Slammedorion]

Now converted to F40 box as the M32 died!!!

[Slammedorion]

After the misses come back from work in it... Spent a few hours hoovering, washing, cleaning glass, even scrubbed the door shuts ( G101 and a detailing brush )...
Ment to tidy the shuts since I bought it, just never got round to it...















Also some pics of the rear parking sensors I fitted a few weeks back...

Might have posted in here before, but heres mine and the wifes VXs




Hers is the Satin Red Hatch, running Z20LET with omex and switchable boost. Mine is the brown estate running a Saab B204L.

Both have more than 200bhp and LSD to keep it sensible.
