Posting this on behalf of graham from D.C.M.S (TopgearNW)
I am selling my Astra Sport V6 which made 211bhp on the rollers
Colour Bronze with black trim pieces and full Gsi body kit and Reiger front bumper(£300).Full respray 2 years(£1500) ago but not the best job in the world but no rot, was full undersealed bye my self before painting.
Full Sport trim e/m windows,sunroof etc but also comes with 2 bucket seats, subframes and harnesses for the odd trackday.
Engine is 2.5 24 valve pre ecotec out of a cavailer it now has 104000 on the the clock had waterpump,full belt kit and tensioners 20000 miles ago and has had the oil changed ever 3000 miles. It has also been fitted with induction kit with cold air ducting, 3.0 litre camshafts and a 4 bar fuel pressure reg which gets rid of the flat spots vauxhall v6s and rise the fuel pressure for more power.All the mounts and spacers needed for the conversion were cnc machined by a friend so has been fitted propely.
It runs a F28 6 speed gearbox converted to front wheel drive with a proper conversion kit again. The clutch was brand new when conversion was done its a vauxhall turbo unit fitted to a lightweight flywheel (revs very freely not lazy like many V6s) and runs big cavailer drive shafts .
5 stud hubs and brakes all round off the cavailer so stops as well as it goes . It has uprated struts and springs all round about 35mm drop not to hard but very good when pushed. It also has the anti roll bars of the cavailer.
Full stainless steel exhurst with twin rounds (sounds like a V6 )
The car comes with two sets of wheels
