I reckon this one of mine will sail an nct too . Well maybe a tyre or two but there isn't one rattle or bang outa her .130k miles on the clock an it's been handed down to my sister as soon as she gets her license 😁

Them astras are such an under rated car. We had one for 6 years, could count the number of things that needed to be done with it in them 6 years on one hand. Was running perfect up to the day we passed it on. They're fairly cheap to pick up nowadays, decent on petrol too.

Did you cut through a farmers field in that focus of yours or what?

That would make sense, but no. All the spray on the roads, narrow N roads, having to keep close to the rough verges if meeting anything middling big. I get the luxury of a good 100k stretch with a smooth finish for a bit. Then down my R road, which is a disgrace and a shame to Mayo coco. One spot you can't avoid the pot holes there's that many of them. Gone through numerous bearings, cv joints, ball joints etc. There's something rattling at the front end atm, must look at it. That's why the mondeo is left parked up most of the time lately, until the roads are somewhat restored!

I had a rattling in the front of mine and was the anti roll bar bushings. That sounds like a poxy commute though.

Good car you don't have to pudding alot of effort to maintain them

I know ye are probably sick of seeing pics of this car by now:rolleyes:, but these will be the last pics for a good while, if not ever. Bought a rust free s14 shell at the weekend, and will be restoring it over the summer, lots of plans ahead!

So took some decent last pics of the levin, on her new wheels.

That car is just perfect. :cool:

that's a black rubber bead that goes between the bumper and bonnet which is totally weather perished and saggy, looks like a cavernous gap in photos. it's very prominent, but the gap is consistent the whole way along. the car is a very high miler so i assume the bumper has been off at some point in its past anyway :pac:

The wheels look like they were made for the car, TFB.
Bridgestone make fantastic wheels so I wouldn't worry about quality, €200 is an absolute bargain!

So the Coupe is gone



And with all this talk of mazda's rusting, i went and bought this barge.


I do have to say, i love the comfort of it, the Coupe just ended up giving way too many back pains. I will miss it though. Now, time to just make the 6 "my own" :D
