Well here is the astra van of love that i bought from lee at the weekend (cheers mate) its going to be used as a tower for our trailer to replace the ****ty old black auto merc that we were useing as the gearbox is dieing and it dos'nt like changeing up

its is already lowered on nearly new 40mil springs,gsi seats,white handbrake and gear gaitor, astra 16v steering wheel :thumb:

So as it is generally gonna be driven around and used alot i have decided to pimp it lol but gonna do so for as little money as possible.



So anyway here go's :)


This is when we got it back when it was still on the trailer and still green and mossy in some places.......
