good strong cars came with 2 different engines
12v and the 24v the 24v obviously has the more power but imo is not the one to go for
then vauxhall built the 12v they used 2 timing chains this was a really good system and does not fail these engine will do crazy amount of miles
but for some reason they changed it to a single timing chain on the 24v engine and these can be prone to snapping
imo go for the less power 12v or do the timing chain with a genuine one as soon as you get it on a 24v
as said above i dont think you will find a low millage oen but dont be put off

I had a 24 valve years ago,went like stink,especially when the dual ram kicked in
If i were to do it again i have a senator 24v instead,i,ve heard they,re a nicer car and your more likely to find a nice one elderly owner example
