Looking good mate. Your Logbook will say Motorsport, but the car is a Cesaro. For some reason a few dealers registerd the cars with the wrong name. As "Motorsport" was never a spec level. But the "Cesaro" was a special editon. Baswed on Ls spec but haveing the fancy sports seats and boot spolier, and alloys. Avabible in 1.8i and a v6 model.

Well done on finding a set of mats. The ones I have are well worn. I thought about fitting soemrear head rests to mine. Found a simliar colour in a scrapyard. But never got round to finding a set of plastic sockets for the shelf. ANd now the Rollcage is in I have no need for the head rests. Out of intrest how easy was it to nfit the fig lights?

I tried on mine. I could get the switch to light up, but never turn the lights on.

The fogs were a doodle to fit, theres a patern on the back of the bumper to show you what size hole to cut, fortunately I had the wiring behind the headlights so plugged straight in, fitted a fuse,relay & switch then I had the same problem with the switch, turned out to be the switch was not making full contact with the plug behind the dash pushed it back abit when fitting. So pushed it back from behind with the switch in place & then hey presto all working, took me age's to find the problem though.

Scrapped another years MOT tester had to test as unidentified engine to get through emissions he recommended replacing the oxygen sensor so I will do that if I can find one, rest of the car was fine though.

Fitted a new Bosch O2 sensor & it runs much better, took it back to my friendly test center who stuck his gadget up my pipe & all is good again, then I get an engine light which stopped it from restarting did the paperclip test which revealed code 15 which equals coolant temp sensor got one from my local Vauxhall dealer, plugged it in then started OK, just got to screw it into the head now so it actually senses the water temperature.

Well not done much lately except fit the leather steering wheel I got from Greig SRI & the car he was breaking as the one in my car looked like someone had been chewing on the leather while stuck in London traffic since I bought it.
