Gave it a quick polish with autoglym super resin then extra gloss protection.

Finished polish.

I bought some led drl, number plate bulbs, fog lights and a hid kit.

Very nice. They're without a doubt the best alloys you can get for the Astra.... I may be just slightly biased though..... Ha.

Mates going Turkey on Wednesday. Sod that! Wouldn't go to country that borders Syria

Tunisia probably the safest time to go now. Armed police everywhere. But still sod any Arab countries for a while

Apparently can change to anywhere but was looking and tunisa is on the same danger level as Spain Italy France. That's where they think will be next. Not sure it's trying to get something sorted short notice, can happen anywhere but

I don't think mine comes off? Because that's how the boot opens?
