    You are saying more or less the right things with regards to warming the enigine up, not necessarily at standstill but just drive off boost for 5 / 10 minutes until oil is up to temp, same goes for turning off just give it a minute before turning off. I had a Blitz turbo timer on my limited edition astra SRI turbo (mk iv), lock car and walk away car will turn off by itself job done.

    I know this is old vid but i have a 1.2 corsa, been rocking the yellow and black. I think the colour really goes on the corsa. Had it for a year and two months. Was £1400 first year & £550 this year. Now two months in. No black box either. Enquired about a VXR yesterday expecting it to be around £1000 for rest of year and all i will have to pay is £35 outright and keep monthly payments at 45.80. Mental?? VXR instead of 1.2 for £35 more a year. Only been driving for 1 year and 2 months also. Should i? A lot faster?

    I have an 07 plate of the same colour. Had it for two years and it’s fun in terms of driving but the paint is an absolute nightmare. The Flame Red they used on these models lacks a clear coat and it fades like nothing on earth. I’ve literally given up to the point where I now call my car the “pink rocket” because the paint is just abhorrent and un-saveable. Unless you’re happy with machine polishing it and waxing it at least every 3 weeks then you should’ve got an Arden Blue one. Also it may look good now but it’ll fade in time, the dealership will have polished it up before selling it, that’s how I was initially tricked into buying one. Also if you plan on mapping you NEED to upgrade the injectors or your engine will run lean and break. Mapping will also fuck your gearbox up in a pretty short time due to them being made of Cadbury’s and barely being able to withstand the standard torque.
