Hi People, A link on the safety level of the new Astra! very impressive five-star achievement!. Check the link out! http://www.germancarfans.com/news.cfm/news...001/opel/1.html This car is really good, at a much lower price tag than BMW, Merc or even Renault and the like! Can't wait to see the actual car.

Tested the car lately. On paper, it is 8.2sec, but in real life feels fast due to the adequate torque from low RPM. Clutch has easy biting, and not so heavy like wrx's, so should be a relief during jams. Could that be one reason why century sprint number is high?? And if u modified the power, i think the clutch will be the weak link. Engine and power delivery is smoooottthhhhh, coupled with 6M, driver is in real control. Compared to 93 troll, it is as smooth, but this one pulls stronger. Perhaps due to lower manual transmission loss. To get such smoothness, i bet the stock boosting is not agressive, leaving room for mods. Think i remember a German tuner offering chip that pumps the hp to 240. Not sure what kind of turbo this is, but it has little lag. Handling is average IMHO, thus making the ride compliant. Steering is sharp, not too light not too heavy. Since it's a hatchback, it's pretty nimble too. Build quality is excellent, typical German like, no complaints here. Plastics are pleasing but could be better and softer i feel. Features: 4 airbags, zonal air con, rain sensor, internal motion sensors for car alarm, remote window control on car key (like Audi, useful feature), advanced trip computer, no sunroof (arrghh...) Price is a tad over 100K. If u r a sucker for value-for-money conti, this got to be at the top few of your shopping list.

I saw this at the motorshow and it looks pretty damn good with the full bodykit and 17 inchers... but the drawback ----> long rubbery gear shift (yup its manual) and FF (yes I'm a sucker for RWD or AWD) The sales consultant (a lady) is very pretty though. Maybe should ask her out for a date

The idea was a natural next step after the company showed an Astra Coup
