Names Mick

Got my hands on an 2007 Astra VXR 30,000kms last Saturday, stoked has a great ride on road and feels really solid.
Get some pics over the weekend. Catch you round town or on the track.

Cheers

Hehehe my mate has a new Bt50 ute had nothing but problems with rust, stone guard and respray.
Good mate who is a painter advised to avoid mazda because we live right on beach and the amount of warranty rust jobs they get is crazy.

That's interesting. The Mazda's have quite thin paint so that probably doesn't help but none of us have documented any kinds of rust problems with our 3's. You're at the extreme living at Manly tho so if anyone is gonna have issues, it's you.

Thats good then- i know the bt 50s are all painted in thailand, hence high humidity and temps.
Yep living on north steyne does have its downfalls
