if i had the time i would service it myself and i'd much rather save it than sell it on or scrap it but i've just bought a house which needs a lot of work and having a 8-5 job i hardly get time to...
i picked up a nova van a couple of weeks back, quite a bit of rust, its done 126k, 1.5 diesel engine runs sound. but i got it for next to nothing so i thought i'd take a punt. done about 600 miles in...

Sourced some front lowering springs so swapped them over and chucked the front shocks back on along with the rear springs and shocks. i will wire wheel and hammerite the rear arches at somepoint.

sounds like i didnt miss much except for the loonaque.
maybe the arden blue astras are just trying to out do the electric orange focus st's over at the ford shows. i hear they have the same problem.
kind of forgot where i was with this, need to start updating it more often :tard:

i dont understand why it's not sealing properly as it is though.
