That is a total bargin if you got it for that price, would be a shame to break the Astra thought as there very nice cars when subtly modded

Keep the car as it is, when it dies, strip it and put the engine in the Corsa.

Whilst I hold no respect for the Astra GTE or indeed any Corsa, it would be a shame to destroy a tidy car like that.
