My car up for sale.
Unfortunately I'm putting up my car for sale. We have a new addition coming into the family in the near future and the mrs insists on an estate. With all my mods I rather be selling it to some1 who will appreciate it and carry on where I left off instead off trading it in. So get in touch if you need any info and pics. It's an astra j 1.4 100bhp 13k miles. I have a forum on aoc with mods done to it. Otherwise get in touch if interested.

Car pulls to one side
I have recently bought a 2013 Astra Elite 1.6 (1st Registered December 2013), it was 9 months old when I purchased it with only 2,600 miles on the clock.

Things i want to upgrade on my car
Hello,

I have just registered!

I been looking around the last few weeks at the different ways to upgrade my astra j 2014, i see there are some people on here that have been doing this successfully.

Is there anyone located in the West Sussex area who would be interested in doing the following upgrades?

- head unit to include DAB, Nav possibly rear camera (i have the standard cd400 i believe)

- electronic wing mirror controls

- convert back door windows to electric
