this morning i was stood at the door of my work gettin a lil fresh air when a veccy gsi went past on a trailor with trade plates on with a mahoosive hole cut in the middle of the bonnet, i didnt think much of it just thought some goon was in the middle of putting a bonnet vent or somthing onto it.

ive just been to mikeanics in congleton to drop a couple of parts off (as i work in an autofactors)
walk up the drive to see the said vectra, and it had throttle bodies sticking out of the masive hole in the bonnet, looked as though the hole had been cut out in the dark with a spoon lol.

i didnt ask mike about it tho as he wasbusy with his head under the bonnet of a mk2 escort, il certainly ask him next time i go around tho, bet that thing goes like fook, and i bet it sounds awesome.

if that was in hinckley, the local kids would put a handfull of pebbles in or piss into it.

The guy who owns it has an immaculate 51 plate gsi, hes uses this one for testing stuff, then swaps it to the 51 plate.

I think they'd try to breed with it if they saw those holes in Mongleton.
