Nice cars, nippy enough for what they are, pretty reliable, cheap to run and maintain and do look smart. Definatly worth serious consideration.
Only downside I find is the inside is quite bland, well put together and designed just a bit boring.

hmm i wouldnt say corsa sport iterior is exacatly fetching, just like the all round look to the 1.8 version, would love a bertone but 2.2 is abit much plus its more expensive again

Yeah thats true enough, just the car from the outside looks pretty yummy inside is just bog standard Astra, it would'nt put me off though.
Just make sure you get one with a decent service history, cambelt+rollers every 40k other than that they don't give much bother.

yeah im abit like that with interior as long as its not a nasty colour it stupidly tacky im not to bothered,
yeah alwasy look for good service history on all my cars although i usually put them thro a proper service and disks and pads change straight away as its worth it for piece of mind
