I am breaking my GTE XE which has been my faithful runabout for the last 2 years.
I shall have the whole car stripped by the end of today (sunday), so can get pics of individual parts by then.

I've priced up most parts, but ask if you want anything!!
Engine - complete with all ancilaries and water pipes to fit straight up to nova. - The Head gasket has started to go (between the oil and water ways), sowould ideally need a go over or re-build.
sold
Gearbox - F20 good condition
provisionaly sold
Fuel tank/lines/pump - comes as a package.
sold
Rear disk beam - This has been strengthened and fitted with golf stub axles - Advantages of this - nearly every beam that ive seen thats been converted to astra/cav disks by welding a plate on the back has not had very 'true' camber and toe. The golf stub axles have been converted so that they bolt on to the nova beam...so not distortion is seen as there is no welding.
Beam comes with fairly new cables as well (2months), and the hand brake mechanism with a bit of floor pan which will need to be welded into the car (you can just make it out in the interior shot above). Also fitted are poly bushes and GTE Anti-roll bar.
The disks look great as they are nice and small. Much lighter than the astra/cav ones! you do need to either file the wheel bore out by 0.5mm, or get the disks modded.
?175
Koni rear shocks - Good usable condition. Adjustable Damping. I used them with the original GTE sprigs which are available if you want. Found this was a good combination.
shocks sold spring ?5
Casaro Wheels - Nearly new front tyres (only had 2 weeks on them) and good treaded rear tyres (all 195/45/15) will have to check makes. Painted in black. Finish is fair, I shall give them a clean up and get some more pics though. I do still have the centre caps, but they are still silver.
?200
GTE kit - Comprising of front and rear bumper and side skirts (with clips) and grill
Fair condition. Rear bumpoer needs a lick of paint i'd say.
sold
Front wings - Fair condition. Good if you want to respray, or keep as they are. No indicator holes, genuine am parts.
?20 for the 2
GTE boot with spoiler - Good condition, just a tiny patch (2p sized) on the spoiler where the paint has come off. Bloody bird poos!
?20
GTE Tie Bars - Nice chunky tie bars
sold
Interior - Front and rear seats and doorcards and cappings. Small rip on drivers bolster, otherwise fine
?60
6-dial dash - all good
sold
GTE master cylinder and servo - good upgrade for lower spec novas.
?15
Bailey polished header tank - Very good Condition
provisionaly sold
Magnex Stainless steel exhaust (GTE) - In very good condition. Worked perfectly with the XE engine (I modded the manifold to fit this system)
sold
Lots of other bits available, such as car loom, lights, steering rack etc. GTE window surrounds. Full sunroof etc
Give me a bell or txt if you want a quick answer. My number is 07891816544
Pick up on any reasonably large or heavy stuff from west sussex (15mins south of Gatwick airport). or reply hear....
