Just a quick hello to you guys and gals.

Im Andrew 34 from County Durham in the UK, i was pointed on your direction by Lauire.

Ive just recently bought a Vauxhall Astra 1.9CDTI Sporthatch, its one of 100 Special Edition Thurlby 888 CDTI which is producing 200PS and 330lbft.

check out this link for more info:

I see that Holden have recently just launched the CDTI in Oz, well all i can say is that its a fab engine and if anyone would like an extra 400-45 bhp then give me a shout

Ill get some more photos up in due course, but heres a couple.
