I started off with an M reg (96) VW Golf mkIII 1.4 CL and modded that a bit but eventually got bored and found a W reg/2000 Astra Bertone Coupe 1.8i 16v in black and fell in love.
Iv had the car about a month now and still love it, performs great, have no probs with performance or body, the traction control is a bit of a pain when tryin wheelspins and the petrol consumption is slightly worse than i thought it would be but overall im happy.
As for mods its pretty basic at the mo az im still at college, iv replaced da grill with a debadged one and the rest of my plans are going to have 2 wait since i have no money!
If anyone owns the same model, since im kinda new to this, could they recommend places or companies that will tune my engine or any DIY jobs i could do?

Ive just fitted my old headunit (ALPINE CDA9812RB) and sub (SPX 600W)! Rear view mirror is almost impossible 2 c out of now!
