Well did some work on the astra last weekend mainly because the drivers window came off the runner.

All done btw made a phone call to the local vauxhall place that white runner thing is £3.16 +vat so if anyone has a few spare just one please let me know
A like the car and the engine wats the condition of the car underneath is it quite solid? much rust as for it bein a L reg. I've gt an astra nd its rotten underneath and its an L reg
1.6 8valve quite nippy like fast enough for me. So now your putting in a new engine you will have to change the wiring loom wont you or is it the same? Good luck with your car mate.
