Above is a flikr link to the pictures, hope it works.
Bought from ebay last Month for a whopping £675 and didn't even haggle.
Bad bits
Rusty sill round drivers side rear wheel arch
Bumps and dents on the boot and a slight ding in the drivers wheel arch (from an elderly previous owner from Bristol), scratches on the wing mirrors and a repaired drivers wing.
Tear in drivers door card
New shocks & top mounts needed
Vauxhall badges missing from wheels (hand car wash water jets) and a few other odds and sods.
Good bits
Under 45k on the clock
Factory fitted remote central locking with alarm & immobilizer.
Has air con which works great
It's a CDX so has electric sunroof, 15" wheels and all the interior trims seem a little nicer.
Oddly enough it has it's own diary this car, the 2nd and 3rd owners knew eachother, the latter who owned it over 10 years until last November (to drive to the shops in and what not) wrote a 3 page list of all the faults & fixes it's had with the mileage included.
Going to get a quote done for the rear sill in the week as its rusty right round underneath up through the drain holes where the underseal is peeling away and just inside the door it's rotten right through and needs a new rubber strip.
Then will be changing the shocks and brushing some stone chip repair up round all the box sections ect. where the galv and paint is peeling away at the same time & spraying the inside sections with waxyoyl amongst a few other things.
This is going to be my car now for the foreseeable future after I sell my GLS.
