    You really want to get rid of that horrid aerial mate. Wait, you're getting new front wings. Sorted!

    Niekos, I really love the arial! Roof arials are so 2010...

    Drove the car home from the workshop last night. 10km to let it run in smoothly on B roads, then about 10km on the motorway, jummie jummie!!

    It's just a wee bit smaller then my daily runner though

    I think it's of a Mk1, or Astra Mk2. Will have to sort that out asap. Needs to be replaced with an original headlight switch though.

    I sold my old Nova (China Blue LF-22-GT) to Niek back in 2004, stuffed it to the roof with parts for a rebuild that never took place. Thank god Niek stored all these bits and parts for me.

    In were new GSI sills L+R and new rear wiper arm:

    Cleaned the exterior this evening. Pleased with the result so far. Bare in mind that the car was is storage for about 1.5 years. Needs some polish and wax though. Interior is next up this weekend!
