Bought this off a guy I work beside for pennies as mot and tax were out. Few wee bits to get it through its mot done and gave it a tidy up today. Its actually and Sri but it has everything bar the front fogs from a GSi. Few wee niggles to sort and I've got a set of 40mm springs to go on next weekend aswell.

Looks nice that, clean. Will look good with a drop. Love these old Vectra's. Alot of car for the money, pure comfort.
Take it the guy you got it from spent a few bob on it with the recaro seats and kit etc.
Any plans for a GSi exhaust or keeping the letterbox??

Yeh it has Gsi badges already. Whats the difference in a GSi exhaust Nik? Aye it has the full interior, steering wheel etc.. No expense spared at some point in its life. Only 80k on it aswell.
Noise is going to bankrupt me soon though.. Loves its petrol!

Facelift GSi exhaust is twin round pipes, slightly slash cut with 1 sitting a bit offset to the other. Letterbox suits them though, but if you wanted to go even further you could change the backbox.

Arite, know the one you mean, I quite like the letterbox so will probably stay for now. Once its lowered Ill be happy, got a set of the properxenon headlights to go on aswell.

Looks nice that. I loved the Gsi I had.
Had it for one year, done 20k and sold it exactly to the date a year after. One of the most comfyist, lazy cars with some grunt I've ever had.
Can tell thats not a GSi because of the ride height.

Looks clean !
Gsi's had scorpion backbox's as standard didn't they ?
When I first got mine it had a cone filter on but it was cooked so fitted the standard airbox and drove 10x's smoother, might have had something to do with the cone looking like it had been ran over tho.
Still nice cars just a shame mine was a dog

Vectra GSi was always on my car shopping list, nice examples are too expensive now though.
