It's amazing how much of a difference lowering it correctly on the right wheels and keeping it clean can make to these older cars. That is niceeeeeee.

[@curbyourshi1056]

Yep, those wheels are the Patrician's choice.

"To be fair" that's a pretty nice whip

[@ARDEN440i]

Respect for travelling all the way up to Birmingham to record the entire video all over again Ricky. That's some proper dedication and hard grafting to put out content for your viewers

[@blownpoppm]

This your car mate? Or know the owner. Getting a MK1 Astra estate the weekend would like to get some info on parts for upgrades and that.

[@calt1296]

I was made in 85 and I can say that the cars definitely faired better than I have lol 😂 and I love the fact that the backbox ain't 4 inches big.. Very tastefully done, what a machine

Ahh man, this brings back some good memories. My first car was a Mk1 Astra 1300s 32 yrs ago. The good old days.

[@gilesj2215]

These oldies are so nostalgic n fun ! Lovin it Ricky ! There’s only so much you need of golf r’s, m3’s and such like ! Builds like these are just fun and let’s face it it’s gunna propa surprise people when it’s pulls away from ya ! That’s what the love of cars is all about ! Pure enjoyment! Great vid Ricky ! Still can’t to see a 5 turbo ( raider would be nice ) I can close my eyes and feel exactly what it’s like to be in one again ! Aaaaaaar the good old days ! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@rtorbs]

Much like F1 and all the assists.....a one armed one legged man can drive an RS3 fast........takes balls and skills to take an 80s car with an analog setup, cable throttle etc to the limits, no ABS, no TCS, no airbags etc and only 3mm of steel betwen your arse and the tarmac lol

[@gilesj2215]

[@dylsx]

Seen this car loads out and about what a weapon! Proper build, Rate it 🔥💪🏼💯

[@paulpanayi9135]

The colour, stance and wheels are all on point 👌

[@AllTorque]

Absolute monster of a car and a great video. LOVED seeing that old school weapon on the road ... shows that you can have major fun on small budgets without all the modern tech getting in the way. 80's and 90's for life boys!!!

[@stevemarshall8726]

Love this!, the colour, wheels, drop, everything!. Had 3 of these back in the day, all 1300. Had a v reg 1980, one of the earliest. Great cars, but had to watch out for the rear arches!, rust. They are an astra and opel kadett, had them badged as both.

[@neilsemmens8901]

I think retro cars are making a massive comeback and I’m loving it 👌🏻👌🏻

[@kofib3]

Just love the clean simple look of this, that could shock some when he puts his foot down.. 😋Had a soft spot for the GTE with the Recaro seats..

[@Aaronozard]

So sweet, really brings back memories of when I first started driving. No many astras about now

[@Mixmasterted2024]

damn thats cleeeean !!!!🔥🔥🔥

[@daver6555]

Ricky you are killing it with some awesome cars on the channel. What a beauty and a proper sleeper. Looking forward to seeing more of these oldskool weapons. Brings back some good memories. Ricky have you been out in a Clio Williams?! Mistubishi colt with an evo block, toyota chaser with 600hp, mitsubishi gto etc.. those were the good days. It's all r32, gtds, tdis and some leons going around now. Altezzas seem to be surviving well too. Keep up the great content and entertainment Ricky. 👍👍🚀

[@alxgu198]

Nice! The wheels, the ride height, the colour, the retro AA badge 👌

[@joehamilton9796]

Loving this Build! Proper immaculate aswell!! Had the same engine 12 year ago but with the f28 gearbox in a mk4 astra running just over 300bhp - fully forged with an evo front mount etc, wish I never sold it ... well broke it for parts! Engine went to Scotland for a nova! 😑 apparently

sexy motor....superb job. Every non-stock part fits the look perfectly. All the older 80s and 90s cars make you feel absolutely everything. Modern cars are far too sanitised.

So much memories of these. My late dad had a white gte from brand new.

[@williamoakes664]

Love the red top Vauxhall engine….always quick in their day and with the light weight ca, I it makes such a difference! That said I’m guessing the extra engine mass may not have been catered for in the figure stated? Either way great car, well built not bought… by a man with his own hands, fair play mate, great whip!👍🏼

I totally agree. Some cars just should not have lsd, especially for the street. Got lsd in my integra and it's a nightmare on the street and backroads. First time i hear someone else with the same opinion. I had an open diff in my cupra and it was way more enjoyable on a daily basis.
