They are starting to look naff, a phrase from the Astra's generation, on modern cars never mind cars from the 90's!

Oh, and just to add another point since we are doing this, drop the engine and pop in something with big power that pushes rather than pulls, job done! Bloody hell, I think I want to buy it and spend money on it now!!

That Astra is awesome. And would have to agree with the points raised about tweaking it....another suggestion would be replacing that sunstrip for something suitably period; Kenwood perhaps? And just to lower the tone again: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Highly-Modified-MG-ZR-1-......Really not sure on how the extensive mods have helped lower his premium?!

You'd think some people would do some research into PH before listing stuff like that... (mind you, gives us something to guffaw at )

That he should've trawled the forums to see if some people on the site don't like his car and if so he shouldn't list it and should seek other places to advertise?
