2001 Opel Astra Coupe Bertone review from Belgium
"Good looking sports car with luxury!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing serious, only "small" things that could not be solved by the dealer.
Rattle in passenger door.
Rattle in dashboard.
Rattle in passenger seat.
When opening or closing the doors, the windows go down and up an inch to avoid scraping the rubbers. The passenger window did not always wanted to go back up automatically. This problem was solved by the dealer.
General comments?
The car is a beauty!
The performance is really nice despite the 'low' 125 bhp.
When you do not drive it to its limits, the car has a very low fuel consumption.
The comfort is super, a real Gran Tourisme car for cruising lots of miles.
But unfortunately, some small rattles bother me, and the dealer cannot find anything, despite multiple attempts.
