Can one of th admins dig up my old thread about ST/DTM lookalikes? I recall someone did a Vectra and Cavalier lookalike as well. Haven't seen too many on the internet these past few years. Though iirc, hasn't Chevrolet created a decal packge for their Lacetti? You can buy the Opel stripes online at Ebay I see.

:up: I did see one done up like that in Stoke on Trent a few years back. Looked like a really good job had been done as well. It was going quite quickly though, so I didn't get the chance to see it properly.

i wont be that quick in mine, its going to be my tow-car for my track prepped nova !!

already sourced the front lower valace, wheels are prob gonna be 100+/team dynamics monzas (19" im thinking? having trouble finding out about the front arches as they look bigger than OE- might try a e-mail to vaux

[Iain]

The arches are definitely bigger than standard. They had larger cutouts to help with the pitstops.

not really needed on a road car then lol

the more i look at that pic the more i want !!

Driving a ST/DTM lookalike is just so rewarding and energizing. It's the closest/practical way to drive a racecar on the street.

Wasn't there one like this at Knockhill, last year? I'm sure i saw one in the paddock area behind the enclosure on the exit of the hairpin!

Triple 8's ST Vectra promo/show car reappeared for sale a year or two ago? I forget if it was street legal or not.
