    Hi From the Mornington Peninsula

    I purchased a very nice low KM one owner Arden Blue Astra G SRI Turbo in late June from Bendigo.
    I have been over it and changed all the fluids and filters and apart from needing a new set of rear tyres, it is in super condition.
    I am retired and have been a BMW fanatic since 1971 and this car is a real departure for me. I needed a practical but fun truck and the Astra fits the bill beautifully.
    I maintain he cars myself and so far am loving the car and checking out the forum for clues as to peoples preferences for various improvements and which bits are best.
    I look forward to contributing from time to time.
    Cheers.

    Welcome. Love the penninsula. Really need to get down there someday
    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....
