Hi folks, just a noob joining the site, if I make mistakes or post something in the wrong area you'll have to forgive while i get use to the site just px'd  my old BMW 318d for an insignia 2015, sports tourer, ecoflex, needed a newer family size car with having two young kids and a dog , my rock n roll lifestyle has changed quite a bit using my phone too so not sure how shrink a picture file for it to fit , keeps saying the file is too big , so grateful for any help with that s23 ultra if that helps with suggestions,  cheers .

Hi steveybean72 ....welcome to the Club

How are you getting on with the Insignia?

Phone images are huge nowadays and if you want to upload you can set the photos to a lower resolution as high res takes up huge amounts of storage space

Good to have you onboard!

Hi there, cheers , been a very long time since I owned a vauxhall,  back in the 90's lol was a cavalier 2.0 glsi or something like that, there was a, g ,s and I maybe an L lol from sitting in the cockpit on my new one they've definitely come a long way , it's a really nice comfy place to sit and love all the dash layout,  drives nice and straight too,inside is spotless,  looks new , only bad bits are ,the passenger side sill has a straight long dent about a foot long which I can correct myself when the weather is warmer , done body work before , drivers side mirror casing was broke,  I've replaced that and I was able re use the mirror cap as that was fine and saved me spraying it lol, one back light has a tiny piece of the corner broke off so I'll replace that in the next week or so, once those things are done the body will look spotless too. Things I've done so far, mod wise, swapped all interior bulbs for white led, black/red seat covers to keep the upholstery clean, ordered some replacement headlight led's, will be doing a chrome delete around windows, prep and respray the alloys cuz there's a few little scuffs, going change glow plugs and filters too, don't know when they were last done, once all that's done I'll either leave it at that or see what else I could do, I do this with all my cars basically, I like get them to look spotless

Sounds like all the mods are subtle and the repairs are minor and sometimes takes a little while to get the car to how you like it....but always feels good when you achieve it

Yeah, it does, put the led headlights in and fitted wind deflectors today, I'm happy with how it's looking,  my reverse camera came today which I'm hoping fit this week,  I need to figure out which wires in the reverse light I need tap into though , no idea
