Hi all just picked up an edition 30
« on: December 22, 2014, 10:18:07 pm »
Hi people, so as the title says I just picked up an 07 edition 30.
After owning a stage 3 astra running 296 bhp and 350 lbft, I was a bit worried it would "lack" the same satisfaction! Of course it did in the power department but inside and driving ability its on another level I love it, to say the least! So I picked it up on 73k just had cambelt change full vwsh and that was done 300 miles ago! It was a bargain at only 8k... It's immaculate not a single chip on the front end either! I got it yesterday morning, but today it had to go for a remap! So having a brother that works in forge Motorsport they mapped it for me with a giac map! It now performs unbelievably!! Here's the pic of her after a quick wash and a pic being mapped at forge :)!

Thanks for looking and I'm happy for any feedback :)! Nick

couple of quick cheap mods:-
black tape on the spoiler lip, and stubby polo aerial...
