    I doubt a Z20NET Vectra would be any more expensive to buy than a 1.8, given they're both old barges by now.

    I saw one 2.0t with xp exterior pack going for 700 pounds and if it was near to me i probably would've snapped it up but it isn't it's somewhere up north... it would take me a whole day just to go and collect the car... can't be arsed... if it was cheaper i would've... but it means tanking 2 (one twice by the way) cars or pay that same amount in train money to go see it and drive it back also to much of a distance to get there and find it in worse nick than the advert states... so nope i left it...

    it was a preface 04 2l with body kit. snowies. think it was an SRI. was only £550 ono. looked very nice in the pics. my 2nd gearbox is bollocked after a couple test drives. was supposenly guaranteed fit. but after further inspection was an f13c394. with different gear selector. i swapped it for mine, new sachs 3 piece clutch thankfully undamaged it had new gaskets and fresh transmission oil.
