Big 'Hi' from a new owner and member

[David84]

Hey guys,

My name is Dave and I'm a complete and utter newbie when it comes to the OpelAus forums and my 2003 Astra SRI Turbo. I came across the forum after scouring the internet for more info on my new ride. I'm keen to learn more about the details of the car and what has been and can be done with them.

I'm no expert on cars but I drive for the pleasure of it. My first car (hold back the sniggers) was a SAAB 95 Aero - loved the low end torque of the turbo 2.3lt. I purchased the Astra as Holden is not bankrupt , and it struck me as more of a drivers car than the limo type ride of the SAAB.

I hail from Melbourne in Australia so if anything is happening in Melbourne town I'd be keen to get involved. Cheers guys and look forward to learning more.

Dave

Hey Shadow110. Certainly seems that way . I'll test it thought with the stupidest of questions - How do I upload an image..? :/

I've tried but it seems I need to use a URL? Apologies if this is not the place to ask such questions.
