Ok here's my VTR I've had it 3 weeks after driving vauxhalls for the last 11 years. Paid £1495.00 with 59,655 miles, 3 owners inc me. Traded my Vec SRI in and paid £695. Insurance with Adian Flux, Fully comp for me £295.00 with mods to date declared.(Very Happy)
I't didn't take long before it all started to go wrong.
I've already removed since the pic's were taken the petrol cap cover, took the door pillar vinyl off, Colored my grille surround, replaced the gear knob, removed 16v badges sorted the engine problem I had and fitted some alloy pedals.
Plans & work to do, Jesus this is getting longer every day.
I'm loving some of the posi blue and black themed cars on here so that's the way I'm going to go. I do all my work myself so things take a little longer but in my eyes it's worth it.
Cut the front splitter to how I want it to look, see seperate thread below on how to, pages 1 and 4 for the result.
