Straight swap for my 1.8 vectra...

Its had a front end "bump"... needs bumper & grill either re-hanging or replacing
Front tyres are worn on outside - so a new set of tyres & tracking
Tax runs out @ end of month

Thats it i think... i need to find out a bit more, but i really want it... its a GTi !!! lol...

Im gonna run a HPI check on it 2 make sure its all good...

I'll keep u all updated  :wink:

Hi Mate,

I was in the same situation......saw it and had to have it. Found a few things wrong with it at first but all sorted and couldn't be happier. :smiley:

You can pick the replacement parts up cheap enough for 'em.
'95 Mystic blue Mk3 2.0l 8v - gone
'93 2.0l 16v Corrado - gone (and missed)
'02 A4 Quattro sport - gone
'91 Black 2.1 16v Corrado -gone
'91 Tornado red Mk2
