G'day all!
First off i'm Lachie, from the Mornington Peninsula in good old Victoria!

I've got myself a 2000 TS Astra and really just looking to get feedback, help, meet up with other owners and share some rad stories!

I've seen some pretty interesting things so far on the forums that i wouldnt mind doing myself, if theres not problem with that, I wouldnt mind getting some advice on what to do and how to install and all that kind of jazz!

anyways enough of my rambling on, meet 'hulk' :wink5:
and yes i know she needs a good wash and wax- im getting to that slowly:steve:

Welcome to the forum.
I live at Hastings and while now with a very nice 2003 SRI Turbo, I had a 2001 TS City that was backup transport for 4 years and apart from normal maintenance, which I did myself, it ran faultlessly. So make sure you do all the basics and it will reward you with good service for a long time.

Thanks all!

And Allen, I'm only 10/15 minutes away from you in Pearcedale!
So far she's ran perfect ! Have had her since November '14 and not one fault yet!

I'm sure I'll see you round if I'm ever headed into your neck of the woods!

Anyway welcome to OA

I've got an AH Astra 1.9 CDTi. Engine has just had a replacement with a motor with 0 km. Just blanked off the EGR valve and have it booked at the end of the month for an ECU tune up.

Hopefully selling it soon and getting a TS Turbo though as the drive to my new work (in Rye) is incredibly fun back roads.

Cheers
