Swapped my immaculate red top cavy for this today.. Felt so wrong but once im finished with this I'll be able to make a bit of cash hopefully..

These are the sellers pics, ive plastic welded the bumper today and got it nearly ready for paint, then it will be time to tackle the back arches...




Centre cap on o/s/f wheel has been refitted

I like it too, just felt strange swapping the cleanest vxl ive had for the roughest ive had.. Will have the bumper finished in next few days, then its just the arches and gonna redo the wheels aswell.

Your thinking of the ST200's, had AP's, diff wheels and a few other differences..

Just out of curiosity - what is the difference between a SuperTouring and, say, a GSi?

Not a lot I dont think... Colour, wheels, suspension and badging... I'm not a big vectra expert so probably more..

Colourcoded bumper tops, different wheels, not sure the GSi was available in white, then there's the badges, is there a plaque on the ashtray?
