Ferg chap, problem with VX's outside of UK is that they are not linked to the UK GM system, which means I can find out nothing about them. Your best idea would be to go into any authorised OPEL dealer and ask them to run a history on it. Opel dealers are the same all over Mainland europe so it should not be hard to do. If your dealer selling the speedster does not want to help, just call up any other authorised dealer and they will if you are nice willow

Thanks, willow anyway for taking the time to respond. I'll try again at an Opel workshop.

Hello Chap,

as regards to your vehicle, there is this on HPI

DATA CURRENTLY HELD ON THE NATIONAL MILEAGE REGISTER INDICATES THAT THERE MAY BE A MILEAGE DISCREPANCY ON THIS VEHICLE.

Now this is not a reliable system, as my own vehicle currently shows this, and it can appear because of an error on the Vauxhall system, but you are entitled to contact them and check it out........
For assistance on NMR tel 01722 432380

As regards to recalls its clean.

willow.

Hi Willow, if you get time could you do the same for me please. Got it from network Q and they bullsh!tted about a couple of things. A different network Q dealer told me it's been hit from behind so Im getting told different things. Im mainly concerned about the recalls being done. Any help appreciated mate YT52 EHV Cheers

EDIT: Forgot to say you have about 2 months to have this rework carried out before it expires. Its something that needs doing as its become a common fault on the Z22SE engine. Dont let it put you off buying if just because it needs doing....... I bought mine with it outstanding and had it done, runs a treat......

does this mean it has to back to a vx220 franchised dealer to have this done ?

what does it cost ?

Thanks

[willow]

Its done under warranty and will cost you nothing as long as you have it done by june. It has to go to a VX dealer indeed. Where are you based? We can do it at Hartwells Oxford - have done a few, including my own

[willow]

UKGULF - Just checked yours too, needs the Same rework on the timing chain chap 03-P-24 Timing Chain 13/06/2003
