Looking nice mate. Are they crome mirrors I see??? Very original? You buy them like that or make them? And are they Mk4 Astra handles? They look sweet. Keep it up mate? You going to do anything to engine?

[Mark]

For Fucks sake, will you please write in plain English :!:

[olly55]

i rite how i wanna type thanx son, i can see one fuk up on spellin where i havnt used the space bar correctly the others r abbrievitaions, get wiv the tymes m8 not everyone likes the queens english

[Mark]

Err - son, I'm probably old enough to be your father!

And I think you will find that if you want to stay a member you would be best advised to start writing properly as most will not tolerate it!

As for Queens english, kiss my bottom, I asked for PLAIN english....

And as for get with the time's, I think you will find it is you who is lost in time as everyone else has stopped writing like a TWAT and only use abreviations in texting etc.

So, grow up and get with it :!:

im all for abbreviations but im afraid tymes is not an abbreviation of times.

stuff like 2morro and u, r ...etc are universally used but some abbreviations, like leaving out gs on the end of ings can be generally annoying as the r not reli needed, they only save one letter!

i agree type how u wanna type but you may find that because of the way you type some will not spend time working out your abbreviations meaning you may get misuderstood or you post not read at all

ive got a mk4 handle drivers side, nothing on passenger side

its all written in the spec

also, my handle opens as it should, isnt still, and doesnt foul anything, took me ages to get it like that mind.

the mirrros came in chrome, i dont know whether or not to c/code them?


olly55... have u got mk4 astra handles on your nova? any pics? i hoped i was the first

[Stanton]

i rekon colour code ure mirrors m8,

although not seen em in chrome yet on ne other car

[andyrs1800]

If this was me... I would get some chrome bumper inserts for the bumpers to match the mirrors, also get the sus on so it sits how it should, stick all the wheels on and see how it looks, Chrome mirrors would probz look proper bo with the chrome bumper inserts, different to... Go for it... :D

[krobinson]

Car's looking fantastic mate. Really clean, shiney! Looks like it rolled outta the factory!

What coilovers are you running in the front?

I see you have 2 choices for wheels, i think you should go for the softstars, still not very common, and look fantastic!

[chenco]

the mirrros came in chrome, i dont know whether or not to c/code them?

I think leave them. They look good wit the chrome petrol cap. How come you got only one handle? You going to put another on drivers side or remove the one you got. Don't think you should have just one. I love the Mk4 Astra ones though so I'd go for two of them. Was it easy to fit? I want to fit Mk3 Astra handles to mine as they are flusher (is that even a word).

[andyrs1800]

Am i right in saying he has a Astra mk4 handle on the drivers side, and no handle on the other side? if so there is no problem.

[elgan]

i didnt want owt on pass side, after the effort gettin the drivers door mint i didnt fancy doing it twice

[andyrs1800]

Lazy..... Only messin, best way, just havin drivers door handle is a good idia, Nobody can jump in the other side if ya dont lock ya doors, just smoother, better and safer...

[Dare-devil]

Your Nova is looking mint m8.

Keep it up. :wink:

[Ben]

Does look nicely done.

With regards to the spelling/typing if you cant go to the effort to type correctly dont expect anyone to go to the effort of reading it.

[Jon_nova1]

[Nova-Flair]

olly55 if i were you i would just calm down.

all we are asking is that you type in plain (ish) english so that members can understand your posts.

it isnt so much to ask and there is no need to argue with other members about it. you WILL get banned cos i've seen it happen time and time again!

if you dont want to use decent english go and use roybacer!

[olly55]

yes but u r not me so dnt tell me wat to do, i type as i wish i type as i txt / speak,

yes i make sim mistakes with the spacebar n tha tbut most of my spellings is exactly how i txt / speak, i cud type in plain english i am more than capable but i jus dont want to and dont see the need wen all i use a pc for is to use the net.


why do u gain turn it into a roybacer vs novaload thing? jus finding a reaso n4 me to kick off and get banned?
sad.
