  • aitkenaj's 2015 2.0CDTi SRI VX-Line Nav Hatchback

    I know the title says my car, but it's actually the wife's daily driver.

    There are a few mods planned so I thought I'd start a 'Members Car' thread.

    Here's the car the day we brought it home (September 2019) -

        Very nice Alex, good to see you on here. I did like the Insignia 'A' facelift, but decided to go for the Grand Sport 1.5T instead.

            That's a lovely example mate.
            Very desirable with the winter pack.

                  Is she into the modding same as you then?

                  Or do you just do it for when you're driving it?

                    I've always modded our Vauxhalls and yes she likes to drive a non-standard motor.

                    We've had -

                    2 x Vectra C's one 120cdti and a 150 cdti that was tuned to 202bhp
                    Astra H 1.6 Twinport that was 100% standard under the bonnet but fully Irmscher'd
                    Astra G Edition 100 1.8 142bhp coupe
                    Zafira B 150 CDTi Elite Auto

                    I've been Admin, Events manager and Regional Organiser over the years on lots of Vauxhall Clubs, and we both love the Vauxhall club scene, and have made life long friends.

                      I've been working away in Germany all week, and have come home to these new lamps -

                      Before and after pictures to follow this weekend. I'm hoping to at least see the road ahead as the standard lamps are worse than cr4p

                        So far so good. No more orange looking headlights.

                        I'm going to see if they light the road any better than the standard lamps later, or if they blind oncoming cars.

                          They look miles better. They deffo won't blind oncoming drivers in projectors. They have an excellent beam cut off.

                            Just make sure the night vision is as good as the day shot looks.

                            I know guys who have bought LEDs and look minted.....until they try and go somewhere at night......

                              Anything is better than the standard lamps right! I'll have a spin when it's darker.
