Its bumpy and crashy, suspension is too hard, needs tyres, rack is knocking, the wheels catch, it wants paint on the rear arch where its cracked, bumper is hanging off, interior is minging, there's play in the gearknob and the air con isn't cold.

Anyone want a cheap Astra with potential

This the turbo?

Seems most of that bar the painting is a quick fix

Needs arch mods, rear bumper bracket moving, softer dampers probably new springs to go with them, four tyres, repair on the bumper clip on the front - part of the bumper not the bit on the wing - and a bloody good clean.

Might have that gaitor off as well see what I can fix in the stick.

All of that in the Corsa wouldn't worry me at all but I don't know much about the Astra. Need to spend some time on it I suppose.

Corsa actually drives better, despite getting even less attention.
