I have to say that currently I have no issues with the car.
Excellent comfort and very spacious inside.
The engine is very responsive and provides more than enough power.
The interior is assembled well, and has an inspiring look.
The bodywork is of a very high standard and appearance is excellent.
Overall this was one of my finer purchases.
Wish I could say that about my Punto mate! Flogged my old Astra March 2002, and have regretted it since. Will keep the Punto till summer 2003 (at the most) then it's back to what I know - another Astra.
