I stumbled across this early last year after a fruitless search for either a good Supertouring or GSI facelift B. I've quite a bit of experience with the B as we used them for years in work in many different guises from 1.8 LS's through armoured and non armoured 2.0's and finally finishing with the 2.2 and 2.6 facelift versions. I always preferred them against the equivalent Mondeo - maybe not as quick but felt better built and no matter what we (and the public!) threw at them, they just kept going.
Anyway, the ad was a bit vague, photos a bit sparse and generally lacking in detail. After a few emails back and forward, I was convinced that this was about the best Vectra B I was going to find. Price was agreed and off to Glasgow I went. Its fair to say I want disappointed! 37,000 (current) miles, every bill, invoice and receipt from new, 2 remote keys, 2 locking wheel nut keys and even the original dealer plates and radio face pouch!
The only thing that I've changed is the rear box for an Irmscher "double D" one and a retro Vauxhall Opel dealer motorsport sticker. I've a feeling the rear spoiler is a dealer fit item too, although it is an Irmscher one as it has a brakelight along with the regular high level one.
I've more pics but as usual Photobucket is being useless! I'll keep this up to date as I go along.
