Most Mondeo ST's have recaro's from what I have seen?
They are a straight swap anyway. As long as you get the facelift seats. Pre-facelift can be fitted with a bit of work.

why do you want a mondeo st tdci? we can't help you if you don't tell us.
it's not a car for fun, more commuting long distances with a bit of poke.

Take your Astra to Warren so I can buy your let and a conversion kit.

If you like everything else about your Astra then I say keep it and go for the conversion.

Why would you even consider sending an old astra with a perfectly functioning engine to get converted to a newer diesel engine when you could just buy the newer car with the newer diesel engine in it.
Probably cheaper short and long term.
