wow - thanks for the nice welcome - much appreciated. had the 2.5 on a 98 many years ago and dipped toe into water again - water being the key word.
Already had to replace radiator, fan switch, n/s cylinder head, lamda sensors on n/s cat, oil cooler, thermostat and housing, front central locking and front tyres/tracking (kumho ku31's - seem ok for price - stopped the tramlining instantly)
Finally no more high temp n car running beautifully - so thanks to the following
Vauxhall - Lookers - took great pity on me when I gave him the list of parts and finally asked for a free box of tissues - instantly gave me 10% off!
Cylinder Head Parts - 01726 817475 - sensible price for 3.2 head - shame on the others - could have bought an engine for those prices
Richard the one-eyed Lithuanian Mechanic for rebuilding the whole darn thing with aplomb in just one day (valve grinding inc)

So please, please tell me I have got a decent car that will last me years as i love the spec, looks and the handling.

Again - thanks for the welcome
