So just recently, well since last fill up which was the 9/05, I've set myself a driving challenge of driving as economical as I can.

When I last did this in my Focus it was OK, but nothing fantastic however the Astra has truly surprised me. I do a mixture of town and motorway mileage so thought this would be a good test.

To say I'm impressed with what I'm getting is an understatement, especially considering I drive the 2.0 165bhp!

I'm off to pick up a new pollen filter for the car shortly. I have three options

1) Vauxhall one @ £24
2) Mann one at £14
3) Unipart one at £9

Whats the difference between the above. Surely a filter is a filter regardless?

Well considering i've been on this forum since February and have made a few changes to the Astra, i thought it time to do a progress thread. I don't have photos for everything but for what i do, i'll post here.

So 2015 came and i'd grown tired of my old car, so after 4yrs of ownership and 50k miles i wanted a change so the hunt began. At first i'd settled on a 1.6 Titanium X Focus, however the price tag meant that it just wasn't feasible at that time so i started looking elsewhere for something

Have damaged the interior door handle on my GTC, only the silver bit. Could anyone provide me the part number please? Its the silver trim showed in this photo. Also. does anyone know the location to a guide showing how to remove it?

Thanks,
Morgan
