    1. New exhaust for my Barina
    2. Lowering Barina
    3. Sub Woofer for Barina
    4. VX220 Turbo

    The one they had in the showroom was sold. So no way they would even let me sit in it the bastards! :cry:

    As for accessories, they had nothing! I mean nothing! I asked and they just shrugged. I couldnt speak Cantonese as it's sh!thouse and they would of just laughed at me. I was hoping to see heaps of items up for grabs, caps, shirts, badges, flags, umbrellas, spare parts ....etc. I wished.

    As for the location, if I can remember ...... between Wan Chai and Causeway Bay on Gascoine (spell) Road. It's along the Harbour. Forfront Motors I think. Look for the Lamborghini showroom cause it's a couple of doors down!

    I just hope they jazz up the place with some stuff after I asked if there was any.

    They don't sell accessories & parts @ showroom. a showroom in Hong Kong is just what it is - a showroom (for sale of cars only).

    the service centre is quite far IIRC and the underground (MTR) doesn't go there. most parts & accessories are available @ service centres. unfortunately since Opel is low volume in HK, they don't stock much any way & would need to be ordered in. the HK distributor also distributes Saab & they rightly or wrongly put more focus on Saab than Opel...

    Dregger, if you haven't got a head unit already, pick one up while u're there. the price are around 60% of those here. my mate picked up a Pioneer in-dash DVD/VCD/MP3/WMA player (no screen) for less than AUD$700. comes with international warranty too! if u need more info on where to buy general car stuff, feel free to PM me.

    Forfront Motors is correct.
