mk3 astra C20LET £1250
Well the time has finally come!
For sale is my vauxhall astra C20LET. First things first. Driving it back after getting it MOT'd (passed) I was hit on a roundabout on the way home
The guy in the middle lane turned into me, his front wheel hitting my rear arch. (slight damage to rear door, rear arch and alloy wheel) Insurance said they'll declare it cat C/D. I don't think this has been confirmed yet though as blame is still being argued over (the pleb is trying to say I ran a red light...doesn't even make sense) this has been dragging on 6 months now, I've lost patience. It's been stood for a good few months now and I'd rather sell it than have it rot.
Rather sell as a whole, but if it doesn't sell then I'll strip for parts.
So, MOT until april 2012, tax is end of this month.
The LET was taken from a 1994 calibra, it has now covered approx 100,000 miles. Head gasket, cylinder head sleeve, valve stem seals, tappets etc all done at approx 85,000 miles.
Cambelt, rollers & tensioner done when it was MOT'd and have since covered about 100 miles!
Regular oil changes always with high quality (thanks oilman!!) fully synthetic oil.

About 4 years ago the famous porous problem occurred, so the head was taken out and sleeved which should be a permanent fix for it. Whilst the head was off new valve stem seals were fitted, tappets, valve springs etc
This was also when the hose kit was fitted. (new head gasket of course!)


Pic of the intercooler, this was at K&N's rolling road in warrington.
I've since changed the bumper to make it stealth.
