No surprise there, the Redline readers are too embarrassed to see a "grandad's car" beating their Novas etc.

Especially since one of them tried to convert my 850 into a 2-seater (you know who you are...)

Gareth,

I know I'm going to get some stick for owning upto this, but besides my R-AWD I also have a Mk 1 Astra GTE which I've owned for the past 12 years.

There are still a few half sane GTE owners out there, can't comment on Simon's encounter though.

Jim,

When I was in JApan I saw the best looking skyline ever..

Wide arches and the sexyest body kit.

Cheers
