    Additional Info

    How/Why did you buy the car in the first place?

    When I bought the car, I found it with the front and rear window put through, a tree growing through the front bumper, and the boot was full of mud!


    Any mods on the car make it to the Bodging Hall Of Fame?

    The car is mainly built from bits from my old bodge stick and other peoples track cars - e.g. Olly H's engine/Corsakids gearbox/Lee's suspension and many other bits


    Is this your first Vauxhall?

    This is not my first Vauxhall.


    Any plans on what to use the car for in the coming months/years?

    The car was built for track use and has proven very good at it


    If you had unlimited budget, what one single extra mod would you do?

    The one thing i would like to do is get some Willwoods to make it better as having to scrub off so much speed on the GTE 16v brake set up is not fun lol
