2001 Opel Astra Comfort review from UK and Ireland
"Worth waiting for!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Instrument panel indicated that a service inspection was imminent even though service has just been completed.
This was fixed by using the reset button.
General comments?
I have not had this car long, but it is a dream.
Yes it is underpowered, especially at low revs, but I feel the car has lots of torque.
Willing to accelerate well on the open road.
Will accelerate from stop (or slow) quickly if you are willing to let the engine scream a bit.
Very stylish.
