Its is a hard thing to explain how much a car, a motorbike, or a even a pushbike can mean to people. I still have my push bike I used to go to school on, in my garage on the wall that my Mum & Dad bought for me over 40 years ago. Mum and Dad are gone but one thing I can say is that bike will never leave my ownership. I also have a few motorbikes that I purchased over the years some of which also will never be sold. Well done Alex and Co. and all the best to Mike and his family

Greetings from Antalya Turkey. I’ve been watching you for a very long time It feels like you are a friend of mine. One and a half year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. Actually when I heard the news I was in London visiting my sister. I heard about Shedfest and wanted to visit but treatments and all kept me from attending. This year again wanted to but, couldn’t for preparation for my wedding. About the cancer, I had an operation done and luckily I am now cancer free. Seeing you helping those in need is making my heart warm. Especially with all the negativity going in the world. Thanks guys. If any one of you happen to be in Antalya, you have a pint from me. Cheers.

Massively underrated car, I bought one a fair few years ago with a few simple mods, Remus exhaust, map, Eibach's and Compomotive wheels. Added a BBK and rear anti roll bar. It drove really well, was pretty damn quick and did 34mpg when not driven like a bell end. They're a bargain now

I get why people tend to hate on modern Vauxhalls, I’m not a fan of the style but having owned a few I can honestly say the Astra/zafira chassis is actually far better than it has any right to be. Probably the most fun car I’ve had was a £500 zafira a with everything behind the drivers seat stripped out to install an internal rack for my mountain bike, slammed on cheap coilovers and with big sticky tyres. I had so much fun with it, I actually really miss it

Try SAAB. They did the turbo tuning for vauxhall and other GM companies. My SAAB 9-5 Aero estate has a brute of an engine, super comfortable, reliable and drive well. With a re-map, a 3" down pipe and a higher pressure fuel regulator, 300bhp and 440NM is easy to achieve. Mine cost £3000 but you can get them for a lot less. Have a look at the 9-3 turbo X. A limited adition AWD 2.8 turbo v6. They aren't as Vauxhall as people think, especially the 9-5.

Opel did their own turbo tuning as well, the Z20LET/LER/LEH is all made by them. You are right, though, about Saab being essentially GM's go-to guys for turbo stuff. The 2.8 is just a Holden Alloytec that Saab strapped a twin scroll turbo on. Also, let us not forget about their 3.0 v6 with a turbo that was spun by only one bank of cylinders, probably for low-end grunt more than anything. The Opel Vectra OPC Concept from 2003 that was presented at the Assen motorshow, had a 1.9 diesel with sequential turbos and it made around 250 horsepower. Something tells me that those Russelsheim engineers took a trip to Trollhattan. Then, the italians saw it and asked if they could have it as well, since the 1.9 was originally made by Fiat Powertrain and GM wanted to use it as well, to replace the antique and unrefined 2.2 DTI. And that's how the only twin turbo 1.9 multijet variant is on 2 production cars: the Saab 9-3 and the Lancia Delta.

It’s what non-car people don’t get. They see all cars as just a ton and a half, two tons of wires, glass, metal, and rubber, and that’s all they see. People like you or I know we have an unshakable belief that cars are living entities… You can develop a relationship with a car and that’s what non-car people don’t get… When something has foibles and won’t handle properly, that gives it a particularly human quality because it makes mistakes, and that’s how you can build a relationship with a car that other people won’t get.

It was and still is very hard. BUT, this car has been with us, brought us a lot of places, maked us smile and cry, brought our first son home and we have so much memories and the most special thing is: we smiled through the whole journey, and we will continue to do it. Every car had a soul, but only the guy/gal like us can see and feel it.

Alex, Taylor and everyone else involved, what a wonderful video. What I particularly like is the thumbnail and title of the video in no way brags about what you have done. Just pure kind heartedness to help out another person in need! You guys are the best 😊

Being an American it pains me so much that we were never blessed any Vauxhall other then like 2 models despite the parent company literally being in America

be grateful you didn't they were shite apart from the VXR's. I think you's got the Insignia VXR over there as a Buick Regal GS or something and the standard Astra MK5 as a Saturn

Get a Cobalt SS turbo and you have the same experience pretty much. Plasticky interior that will rattle at some point in its life time, good looks and a whole lot of fun when you press the go pedal.

Yes, do a Vauxhall/Opel challenge! Everyone starts off in a different cardinal point (Spain, Greece, Poland,…), find an Opel for three quid, register it and meet up at the Nürburgring or in Rüsselsheim. 😅 Opel ist so underrated imo.

I got an Astra Combi with the 1.9 CDTI 150 bhp, good car, cheap to maintain and pretty reliable. And not to mention it s pretty damn fast even with the 18'' wheels I got on it.

For all the swearing and larking about, Alex and the guys constantly show that you are all such a kind, classy group of people, because you do so many things like this. An absolute amazing gesture. Ans somehow that Astra looks just right; definitely modded but not so much it looks ridiculous and the styling touches do work, down to the blue 'VXR' seat belts to match the colour. It's not my thing, but it does look really cool.

This is so much better than you buying a super car, etc. Well done to you & team. so nice watching people who have the money, skill, equipment, etc, helping others in need rather than just buying cars and then showing people and making a video of "Hey, look what i got." Respect to all those involved in this project.
