Hey guys
I'm Will, and I've been lurking around OA for a few years now, never actually got around to doing an introduction though.
I started with a 1.8 Equipe, saw it on the side of the road in Newcastle, it was a good price, so I bought it.

Not long after that I upgraded to an SRi, which has been the daily for the past 2 years or so. Did a few mods to that, nothing major though, just wheels, sway bar, opelised, etc etc..

And then about 10 days ago I purchased Chris's awesome little SRi Turbo, Astra number 3 for me!
Here she is with the older brother...

Mods that Chris had done include the AH alloys, sway bar, lowering, intake, exhaust, front mount, remap, hi/low boost switch, and some other stuff.
Mods I have done are Opelise (rear badge on the way), white LED interior, FK angels, and quieten the exhaust a bit.
Other then that I don't have a lot planned, except maybe an IPF down the track sometime.
Feel free to make some suggestions...

Thanks mate!
I'm going to sell the 2.2, on the lookout for a ute at the moment.
Been in Mudgee for about 3 years, it's a good town. Are your family locals?

Ha ha not really, they are just the ones that came up! I really wanted an Arden Blue SRiT, but the Chris's one came up for sale. Maybe next time...

Yeah I just noticed they had DEPO written on them today, didn't realise they did replacement stock parts too.
Might flick the old angels, will sell them cheap though, the right hand side DRL's don't work - or at least I couldn't get them going, which is why I replaced them with the other ones.


Welcome to OA.

Ha ha cheers guy
