My Vauxhall Carlton CDi 2.0 8 valve Auto which is under going some serious modding. The story so far: I have owned this car for 2 years now, but for the last 10 months has been off the road while it under goes some serious conversion from being a family four door saloon into a 2 door Saxo/Nova and all those other annoying little hatchbacks that hang around McDonalds after dark beater. The engine has been fully rebuilt with a Astra 2ltr GTe gas flowed head, oversize valves, road race cam shaft, Kent pulleys, Oversize injectors, Mapped and superchipped ECU, 57i Induction kit, FSE power boost valve and now work is under way to turbo charge the engine.

Here is a pic of the car before it was taken off the road, it was already lowered by me by 40mm with Spax adjustable shocks and springs and 17x45x225 alloys

The body kit that is going on as we speak consists of Delta Styling front spoiler and Delta 1 side skirts, Lotus Carlton rep rear bumper (couldn't find any other rear bumper), Trooper bonnet scoop, Morrette quad headlight conversion, Mk2 GSi front grill, Lotus front wheel arches. All bumper strips removed from the sides and will be smoothed, front indicators removed from front wings and blanked off. The windows have been tinted with limo black on the rear and back windows where as the fronts have been done in legal tint. The rear boot will be smoothed and topped with the alloy dual blade spoiler as seen in the first pic. Rear door handles are being removed and blanked off due to the rear seats are being removed to make room for the rather large ICE install which will be detailed on page 2
