    Heylow!

    Hey all, I'd just like to start off by saying I'm probably the biggest noob on the net right now when it comes to knowledge of cars lol - One of the main reasons I came here - to learn some more stuff about the car I own. And that car I own is a Holden Vectra 2000 CD 2.2L

    Anyhow, I've come to this site basically to learn some new things about cars in general and hopefully can get some really helpful advice from you lot, cause as I said before, I know blank all about cars - Well I do know a few things, but compared with you guys, I'm the student.

    Anyhow, here's a photo of my car;

    Now with you having seen that, I've got a number of questions I want to ask about modifying my car and some technical issues, but I'm not sure whether or not I should ask them here or leave them for the Vectra section? Anyway thanks!

    Cheers.

    =)

    Welcome mate. As said, there are a few veccy guys floating around, always willing to help Click here to enlarge
    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....
