1996 Opel Astra Comfort Stationwagon review from Norway
"An excellent, spacious car for less money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
Great car.
Very comfy, but the seats are a little short if you're a tall guy like me (6'2").
Handles very well, got good brakes, ABS brakes, double airbags, sun-roof, and it all works brilliantly.
Uses about 0.6 - 0.7L/10km, and with the extra luggage space you get in a stationwagon, the Astra is a great car.
