  JJ'S Astra Progress thread
Posted by: Jj0063 - 30:th-Mar-2015, 21:24:00 - Forum: Members car's progress threads - Replies (123)

Hi guys,

New to the forum, been looking for a dedicated J forum & finally found one!

I sold my Vectra, had an Astra J for a short time and then got a BMW which I had for almost a year.. Kinda missed the Astra from day one but stuck with it.

With service and MOT time looming I decided it was time for a change.


I managed to find a garage with the right spec car and managed to get a straight swap for my 2009 BMW 320D for this 2010 Astra SRI CDTI. My BMW was worth a fraction more but I'm more than happy as I really wanted to be back in a Vauxhall.


It's a 60 plate Astra 1.7 SRI CDTI, 1 owner, full history, full MOT, 12 months warranty.


Couple of optional extras which were a bonus:
Sat Nav
Bluetooth
Voice recognition
Spare wheel kit rather than Goo/Pump.


Plans:

PIAA White DRL bulbs already done
Gloss black front grill, may even plastidip it.
19" Vauxhall wheels found on some high spec J's (Poss)
If not, a wheel refurb as these are kerbed
Tinted rear windows
Fit private reg & get some new pressed plates as mine are Chipped.

Any recommended mods for these? Cheaper the better!

Hope you like!
