My Astra Van
« on: March 07, 2009, 02:45:41 PM »

Heres my budget Astra van,its a 1400 runs well but will be getting a 2.0 cav or calibra running gear fitted sometime in the near future,anyway as you can see its clean and tidy,will be slightly modded as well but the first job is a new tailgate cos this one looks hideous.







also got a rear fold dowm seat with belts which might be handy with 4 kids at home :lol:

well scrap the above,the van is going over the workshop today so i can concentrate on getting it mot'd,another bit of luck today,i've now scourced an early cavalier sri with the 2.0 8v seh engine,130 bhp,so the van is going to fly,i'm going to mot and tax it whilst its a 1400 then do the conversion otherwise i'll have to pay full wack on the raod tax ;)
