I'm selling my Astra GSi.

I'm currently fixing the rear arches, which will be done at the end of July. There is also a new grille to go on, and need to replace the suspension mounts, and a few other bits I bought and never got round to putting on.
I've just fixed all the wiring, electrics, etc.

I've just replaced:
Clutch,
Clutch release beearing
Front brake discs,
Front brake pads,
Front brake pad sensors,
Rear brake discs,
Rear brake pads,
Front driveshafts (both sides),
Air flow meter,
Coolant temperature sensor,
Lambda (Manifold oxygen sensor),
Traction Control ECU and switch,

The car came in standard form,
I have since put Calibra heated leather seats in there, and spent quite a while adapting the door cards on (no one has done this before afaik). It has everything from an Omega in it-

Illuminated sun visors
Illuminated grab handles
Electric rear view mirror
CRUISE CONTROL

The car went to London and back after replacing the parts, and that's the only mileage it's done since.

The only bad points of this car are the alloys. The previous owner couldn't park, and they're scuffed and scraped. The driver's seat bolster has also been worn. Apart from that, I've kept this car in A1 condition, regardless of cost. The redtop XE engine is in top condition, doesn't tap at all and has just done 101k miles. It also does 100 miles to 10 quid, thanks to the AFM, CTS and O2 sensor change.

I really want this car to go to a good home, I don't want to be seeing neons and leds on it if you know what I mean. laugh wink I've done everything I can with it now; I have another Astra as a runaround and a Corsa which I am turbocharging, and am getting a Caterham 7 (life long ambition), so no room at all.

I'm asking for 3k.

I'll put some new pics up later, and more text as I've probably left a load of stuff out.

Wow, from what I've seen you've put so much work into this, gutted I never had the pleasure of seeing it up close. If I had £3k I'd probably snatch your hands off, looks like such a nice car.
