mine went the same way, on the back of a scrap wagon, looked mint from the surface, but some muppet fitted a new quarter panel and it was in two peices under the skirts, it did give me a donor engine for my nova tho.

Mine was ?300 with a V6 conversion, 5-studded and F28. I wouldn't pay anymore than a grand for what is essentially an Astra GTE with leather, although they seem to go from about ?1500+. Guess your paying for the exclusivity (sp) really....

ah thats not too bad i dont think price wise, i thought they were going to be more than that because of exclusivity realy.
