welcome aboard fella looking forward to seeing the pics its interesting to hear comparisons between Scoobies and a Civic Type R. I've never owned a Civic myself but a few on here have and they seem to be popular
Hi Ace glad to hear all is well.....apart from the car of course!
Good review on the Astra you should send it to Vauxhall they would be proud! I won't be buying one any time soon thats shocking getting 27mpg out of a modern 1.6ltr car it just goes to show unless you switch to diesel there are not signicant savings to he had especially if you have to drive it hard to get any type of performance.
A guy up the road from me sold his 28bhp Leon Cupra and bought a 1.4 Seat Ibiza Deisel which advertised 65mpg. he returned it 6 months later as it was retuning less than 50mpg due to hime having to drive it so hard to get any type of performance and by that all i mean is 80 on the motorway and overtaking etc. He ended up with a BMW118 Deisel which returns 40mpg and he loves it.
@ Tommo - Thats an interesting point I never thought of grit/salt as an issue surely that is only a problem if you dont keep them clean though?
@ Flaps - Thanks for uploading the picture I was going to ask if someone could do that they do look nice! Looks like I will need to get the car lowered a bit as well.
Welcome to the club mate hopefully someone on here will be able tp point you in the right direction.
I hope its.a sound car you won't regret buying a Scooby!
Why would you not get the silver ones? Its difficult to tell just looking at web pictures I need to see them in the flesh really but I was thinking silver always looks good when clean :-)
Cheers for the pointer Chris good find!
So here are the wheels I am looking at (not particularly original I know!) but I cant decide between silver, gunmetal or polished gunmetal
Linky
Will definately be buying new mate!
