its been so long since i posted here!

basically i was looking at trading in my car and getting an astra wayy back in june but decided ultimately that it wasnt the time and to wait.

cut to last weekend when i went to trade my car in and wasnt offered enough so decided to sell it privately, and tonight i just took deposit and got the price i wanted/needed and the final payment hapens on monday.

so FINALLY i'm able to get my astra cdx manual coupe!
i test drove the new 1.8 hatch last weekend, as they didnt have any of the coupes...and the new engine is sooo much nicer than the last one i had test driven, and it would probably handle a bit better and be a little bit faster as its lighter i think.

anyway...so finally it seems its happening!
next weekend provided all is well i get to go around and buy my new car!

ima try to get it for 27 drive away with reverse sensors, think thats good?

ill keep you posted and ill probably have a few questions when i get it, so i thought i'd come back!

*runs around excitedly*

Congrats on the purchase mate! I have the same care and can tell you the handling is fantastic! Only thing you'll start hating is the huuuuge doors :).

Congrats again :)

haha yeah i noticed the doors on them when i sat in the HSV one they had at the dealership, and i remmeber them from the last time i drove one too.

but eh, small price to say for how sexy it is :D.
the new engine had so much more low end guts, i really loved driving it.
so yeah......havent purchased just yet, but hopefully next weekend :D
