as alot of you know a while back i was in a chrash in belgium.

well since then i bought an ex police white 5door whith a 1.7cdti engine in it.

the white one has undergone a massive transformation since i got it last christmas, and i have been waiting for an excuse/oppertunity to go over to germany and get the other astra to do an engine transplant.

well the oppertunity arrose the other month as my astra died. so over to germany we went. and now the project is about to begin..

the car. 1.7 ex police 5 door astra.

the aim. 1.9cdti sri xp.

progress thread to follow. with pics and me being annoyed that its not going as easy as i first thought. ( i hope it is a s easy as i imagine tho.)
