So I've been here long enough and I've not even done a progress thread!

The model I went for was the Vx-Line 2.0cdti SRi in white which I got mid 2015 and I fell in love with it instantly despite not having any extras on it except for parking sensors.

The day I got it:

I started doing subtle changes to it such as alloy pedals, new floor mats:[IMG]http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160120/bd901e889e65964cc

Hi everyone, I've been on this forum quite a bit recently so thought I would put some photos and info on of my car.

I have the 5 door SRi 2.0 CDTI 165 Automatic with front and rear parking sensors.

Was surprised to find the rear windows are manual! Thought they were a thing left in the 2000s.

All my 'mods' so far are electronic.

Complete-
H7 Nightbreaker Unlimited bulbs for Low Beam
LED number plate lights
LED DRLs/Sidelights (Epistar Projector with CK Pinout)
LED Interior Lights

New to the site but thought I would start progress thread as have couple plans since getting my Astra Elite 1.4 turbo on Saturday.

Looking at doing the following:

DTUK FSR Tuning Box
Pedal Box
Wind deflectors
K&N air filter
Sport pedals
Window tints
Possible black roof wrap with wing mirrors
Alloys changed to Black

This is how currently stands from picking up

I've owned this car for a year now so thought I would put together a thread of the mods I've done to it.

Before I went shopping for the astra, I test drove the new civic 1.6 diesel. The ride was better than the previous generation but still pretty poor.

The 1.6 motor was OK but I didn't think there was enough power to keep me interested very long.

Other cars I were interested in was the focus 2.0 zetec S and the seat Leon FR 150. Both of them

Well I thought it best I start this thread since I am planning on doing some investigation into how to improve MPG and performance.

I have a 1.4t Auto GTC

Now I have this car for the long hall so I will be taking my time and working on different combinations to see what works best.

My car is was only getting 27.2 over the first 3 weeks of owning the car. I have added some RedEx to a full tank and now I am getting 31 average.

So my list goes as foll

I've never done one before but I thought I'd start a progress thread for my new GTC.

Progress will be slow going but I will update as I go along.

My first mod/upgrade is to fit new front and rear mats. I purchased a set of these from eBay and they arrived this morning.

Took a little less than a week and included was a cheeky free gift so pretty pleased with that

The mats themselves appear to be very well made but time we'll tell abo

Had my new wheels fitted today but I can't have my locking wheel nuts back on due to being too wide. Been looking at some and I've read that Astra nuts are m12 x 1.5 x 30mm..

Ive found some locking nuts that are m12 x 1.5 x 32mm and there the only narrow ones I can find. Will these fit even though there 2mm longer in thread depth? Thank you [Image: http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160916...7c099a.jpg]
