	My XE had around 130k on the clock and whilst it doesn't need much replacing, it's having it all done anyway. Bill will be close to £1000 in total which includes parts, labour and the C20XE, gearbox, loom, etc.

	That Astra is certainly cheap at the moment, they're worth a few hundred quid more than that in bits.

	at only 41 quid it's worth someone getting just to chuck in a rolling chassis and use as a track car just for a laugh! thats cheap even though the high mileage. (providing it doesn't rattle or smoke as the person claims)

	I was told that too -- if it doesn't smoke, don't bother rebuilding, unless you want performance mods...

	XE's are good for at least 150k before needing a rebuild, just got to keep em serviced nice. Wouldnt buy one off eBay tho
Tim	posted on 14th Feb 04 at 11:56
	Std rebuild would set you back about £1000 + sundries (at somewhere like V-Tuning)... more if you went somewhere like SBD...

	dunno depends how far u want to go and whether u rebuild with standard or performance id do one if i picked an engine up cheap enough
