    You will just have more maintenance issues with the Open Astra 1.6L. Opel owners might say parts are not hard to find or they aren't expensive anymore but those parts can only be bought from specific stores in the city.

    Not to mention the Astra is a heavy car, underpowered with it's 1.6L engine, cramped at the back seats & slow to accelerate on the road.

    You would be better off by looking for other cars like Civic, Sentra, or Corolla.
