Nice car mate.
I remember my very first car, it was an Ascona C 1.6 diesel, 1982, piss green, 5 door hatch. It was slow, it was noisy, but god was it reliable...

Nice? Is it an original Irish one?

very nice...what year is it?

The wheels look like they came off a Vectra. They look real well on it actually. Nice car to have , something different and you wont see many more of them. Good stuff she looks lovely.

They never sold the 2 door Ascona here, though there were a few 1.6's, mostly red with "Sport" or something along the doors.

Thats a nice car and the 2.0i is actully quite fast by modern 2.0 standards.

They look like Vectra Turbo wheels.

I'm not a lover of FWD Opels by any means, but that's a bloody nice car. I never saw a 2-door Ascona C in RHD before. Well done!
