I love mine, can't fault it. Looks good, drives good. Take one for a test drive and see how you get on.

So if people say they're terrible you're going to buy one? 
Personally I like them. My mum has one, 14k on a 2003 car. Never had any problems at all.
You'll do well to find an 02 though, even the very earliest are 52.

Had mine a week now and im impressed with it. Handles good for standard, brakes are good as well.
Feels quick, compared to my valver Corsa anyway. But thats not a good example. Astra is so smooth.
Fear :- you running the Eibach springs yeah? was thinkin of gettin them.

Had mine for a year now, not a fault with it (touch wood) They are really nice cars to drive, its a pleasure to go out and drive it. Power is there, alot of power through the gears.
Brakes are really good, stops sharp.
The looks of the car to me, are great, that is one of the things which made me purchase one.
Out of the SR-T and GSi the GSi came with more extras, and look better IMO.
Trust me you wouldnt be disappointed in buying one.
Here are a few piccys of mine
