My VXPro 2.2 in my Astra Coupe cost me £2700 and that was fitted (£300 labour charge) along with a few other parts that also needed doing (Exhanust manifold, tensioner and a CV joint) so about £2k for a VXPro LET is about right

EDIT: I've known Keith for years and he ALWAYS builds some of the best Nova's in the UK - and this one looks to be no different, I hate him!
At least he has one downfall - the colour of his hair!

Wow that amazing. So roughly would Vauxhall charge for a rebuilt LET (with no exchange) and to fit it? Roughly?

I know, I'm just saying you don't get any of the bolt on parts with it so it's not 2k and then you have an engine to put in, still need alot more parts

Lovely blue James. What colour is that?

What model did the Nova start off as?

The silver looks so silver it looks like paint rather than metal.

I'm amazed how perfect it is. There doesn't seem to be any rust or flaws of any kind from the pictures.

I still think a LET is excessive in a Nova and that an XE would be far more appropriate.

That's what I presumed Jules but it seems a fairly inaccurate description of what they are supplying.
