Heres my baby



2008 Astra VXR Nurburgring running 317bhp at stage 3

Its pretty good on fuel. Average 26mpg, town driving 22mpg on a run will do 30mpg. Have got it upto 42mpg average crusing at 55mph.

Cost so far:

Tyres £750

Stage 3 conversion £2200

Servicing £450

and a new gearbox under warranty, would have cost £6000

will need new disks and pads all around soon though

Best car ive owned. Last car was a 296bhp mazda rx8 running a race spec engine which averaged 12mpg. Town driving was doing 9mpg. Repairs in a year cost over £5000.
