Hi I'm Aggy, live in Haverfordwest and Croydon, I'm far too familiar with the entire length of the M4

I've owned a standard 205 1.6 GTi for 3 years now, recent relocation from Sauf London to South West Wales prompted me to have to buy something sensible, economical and boring for the motorway mileage so I ended up with a Vauxhall Astra 2.0 DTi Sri It's a real sheep in wolves clothing.

My most recent purchase was a 205 Mi16, the engine is mildly modified (approx 180bhp alledgedly), shortended inlet manifold, kent cams, superchiped, 4-2-1 custom exhaust manifold etc etc.. Handling is courtesy of Koni adjustables and the rear end is of the 309 GTi variety. The exterior is a bit chavved up at the mo, so I've set myself the task of restoring the exterior to standard. Then installation of a Quaife ATB and a rollcage and it might be ready for trackday duty.

Hi.

There's a load of us in S. Wales who have recently started having meets and drive-outs. Keep an eye on the forum if you're ever driving past on the M4 and fancy talking cars.

Don't be daft, the more the merrier. I think there's already a 205 GTi amongst us.
