2001 Opel Astra Coupe review from UK and Ireland
"Stylishly understated"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far, performance and reliability have been excellent.
General comments?
The Coupe is both neat and stylish without the price usually associated with such style.
The pick-up and acceleration is impressive for an engine of its size, with the added bonus of the ride being incredibly smooth.
The gun-metal console is attractive, as are the sporty white faces on the dash dials.
The seats are incredibly comfortable.
