Its been not cheap, its had a full respray , new inner and outer arches and sills, but I think its an investment. I have not seen a white SRi saloon pre facelift for a really long time.

I think a set of mk2 astra GTE white 14" alloy's would suit this car down to the ground & a real period mod.

these weren't a standard option on the Mk3, I did have them on my MK2 SRi 130, its either the cross hair CDi ones or the LX wheels that were available for the mk3, but wanted to keep it like this
