picked up this bad boy on sunday, quite chuffed with it to be honest, needs a bit of work but i cant see an original lazer blue gte go off the road:roll:

needs a n/s door - wing and repair to rear quarter:

and then this lurking under the dented and scratched bonnet:

but its been 'thrown' in with half hearted effort, shame really:

lowered 60mm, FULL gsi interior, engine starts - runs - drives, full s/s exhaust system mated up propperly, clear rears came with it, found a 7" tft screen in the boot, bonus! looks as though it was thrown together by someone not very clued up, but nothing a little tlc and knowledge wont sort, look out for it in projects (when i can be ar*ed to start it) comments please

his astra is nice, yeh i think i got a good bargain, colour is beautiful, plans are to take it back to original GTE bar the interior, maybe fit an LET, got to get my red xe finished ready for PVS then i'll be getting the GTE re-sprayed etc, never know i might even be able to get them both to pvs ;) when i start doing some propper work on it i'll be posting a project thread, thanks for the comments:thumb:
