    This is her. She got dropped off about a half hour ago, 78 Vauxhall VX 2300 GLS Auto. She's a bit of a fixer upper but that's how I like them. Only done 36k miles and it has a mountain of service history up to my knees. I'll take some better pics of it when I can..

    Have NCT this evening so gave it a clean inside and out. Hate black cars, so hard to keep them clean! Anyway, fingers crossed it will pass.

    4 hours gettin' the winter coat off shows up all the stonechips. And a new scuffmark on the bumper from a near death experience a few weeks ago.

    Looks good :D are these as bad on petrol as all the review's are saying?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,607 ✭✭✭toastedpickles


    Uh ohhh :o

    indeed...

    12L/100km on good petrol, with three people and luggage climbing out of Cork. 20 around town. Worse on the ****e from that place on the quays. Tolerable for long cruises.

    6 injectors mean a lot of fuel. As does a vacuum leak that refuses to sort.

    Thanks man!

    Yeah, they're very hard to find, this is my 4th Punto and I had them on the previous two.

    These actually came with the sporting alloys but the alloys were sold and swapped for standard 15s. Will definitely be investing in some 17s in the summer.

    Anyway, failed NCT on an imbalance on the front axle, thats all, no advisories. Very happy with that considering its never been for a Nct before. Booked in on Thursday to change the front shock absorbers and ill rebook it in ASAP.

    Looking very well. Is that near the Kildare Stud? Looks familiar. I've not washed our cars since the 16th January :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 893 ✭✭✭mhackett102


    Uh ohhh :o

    Uh ohhh is right.. My bad :pac:

    Anyhow, while I was away I paid my car tax and bought some new cleaning products for the car. Pictures to follow this weekend ;)
