I have got a V reg 1.0 envoy in star silver
I picked it up cheap last year on the 21/12/2009
it had a popped head gasket so only payed £200
with only 56 thow on it and a full mot and a full tank good times
its going to be my new shell to fit my c20let
then stripped it all down then started cutting taking out the
slam panel
boot floor
filler neck
and removing sound dedning
