Has a few engine troubles revs fine but has a poor idle. I think its down to an air leak, I replaced the split plastic inlet, as I thought that would cure it but no joy.
It has had a full top end rebuild and new clutch at V-tunning
So idealy need to have the later style inlet put on.
Needs time which I dont have and I dont have the space
£600 no offers I just want back what I have have put into it

Stu - hope you dont mind me helping you out here.
V-tuning carried out a top end rebulid inc head gasket, cam belt etc.....
The reason I sold it was beacuse the other half needed a diesel for work and she didnt want to ruin this car.
Stu took it on, but like me its a time and space issue.
If someone has the time and space to store it and do the little bits that need doing then its a steal at this price.
The car mileage - the car had done around 86k (when i sold it i think!)
But the engine is painted gold which according to Vauxhall sources means the engine was replaced by Vauxhall (because of the undersize piston problem that the car was recalled for)
The history we had went up to near on 20k so the engine and running gear had only covered 65k (ish)
Hope you dont mind me helping you out stu and good luck with the sale!!!
Who ever buys this car - keep in touch as i would love to know what happens to it
