No direct info on it, but its looks nice and reads well. That is a good price IMO.
Note the airbag light is on, which will be because of the aftermarket steering wheel - might be an issue at MOT time.

Curious to know how them seats fit as well. Not standard Monaro seats. Look like Vectra VXR seats maybe. Wonder what adaptation was required if any? These may also be another airbag issue too?

Yeah they’re Astra/Vectra VXR seats. As you rightly say, probably another airbag problem.

Price is good but I reckon it’s had a hard life.

Would make a nice track car.

Gone already? Did you buy it OP?

I’ve noticed that one’s been up and down more times than (insert name) knickers. I assumed they did this to get to more attending but don’t know how. Or they’ve been really unlucky with people leaving deposits then not going through with the sale…..

It's back on, £3k more than before!

madness !

Airbag stuff is in the FAQs to sort replacement seats and steering wheel. Also a free program to reset the light and instructions on a cable to make up etc.

They're Astra VXR seats, god knows why they've ended up in there, they don't suit it at all!
