as a 'spares or repair' car it's probably not worth much. This is an estate, which could be considered as desirable as the 3 pedals in your car.  Undecided

....

I'm not sure what tools I need for doing the cam cover gaskets.... Undecided Undecided


No special/fancy tools reqired, just a selection of Torx sockets.  Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up!

But as Rob says, pattern gaskets don't last, and as expensive as Vauxhall's are, you only need do the job once. Instant gasket doesn't last either ....  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes and then it's a bast'd to remove.  Sad



How much are Vx gaskets?


i'd strongly recommend genuine, especially if you end up selling it to a forum member, if you fit non-genuine you may as well not do them at all given the forum popularity of pattern gaskets

if you do plan on selling it as it is, and listing publically DO NOT use the term "spares or repair" as it implies its practically on its last legs or needs millions to put right, just list it with the bad points like you have
