I would say, watching this film back 13 years later, the Astra is literally the only one that doesn't look 'old'...

I've got a 17dti diesel estate. Superb car, never breaks down, cost me peanuts old rep car, 150,000 miles on the clock full tank is good for 500-600 miles over a long distance. Roof bars and boot space, you can get all your family in there with 3 surfboards on the roof and all your cricket gear in the back. It's a brilliant utility car and I love it!

In the Brazil, the Chevrolet Astra is the best of the same cars!!

Focus = troubles!!

Golf = 4ª generation (2011)

And, the Opel Astra is "Vectra", with a gas engine, 2.0l, Ohc, 140 horse power of power and 19,7 kgfm @ 2.600 rpm!

It's delicious to drive in the urban traffic and a bullet on the road!!
