Looking at getting the Bertone model Astra. http://www.carzone.ie/search/Opel/Astra/COUPE-EX/2113284449977860/advert?channel=CARS saw that and think it looks well. Anyone own one? Or has previously owned one? What are they like mpg, are they reliable etc? Any advice would be great, thanks.

I had one a few years ago. Had it for 5 years with absolutely no problems. Few services, brake pads, tyres and a new battery was all it ever needed. Handles like a dream, great for city driving, cruising down a motorway or caning it along back roads. Never had an ounce of trouble from it and petrol consumption was great. It cost about the same in a month as my previous 1.5 almera.

Nice and quick.....I still miss it....

Missus started driving so I traded the 1.8 coupe against a Astra Sportshatch 1.4 :rolleyes:

I'd love to get another one - can't reccommend it enough!
