zafira or vectra wagon

[euro_c]

Since di ko pa afford ang Jazz, I was looking at these other options... Gusto ko talaga ang itsura ng station wagons...

Do you have feedback on the zafira and the astra wagon/club? Which is a better buy? Or kung may iba pa kayong suggestions na parang touring/station wagon style? Mura kasi ng mga vectra sa buyandsell, pero yung zafira parang walang for sale...

Both astras and zafiras are good solid cars. Depende na sa needs and taste mo which of the two you'll get. astra is like a regular car which sits 5 but bigger trunk space. The Zafira sits 7 and is taller.

meron ako nakikita for sale astra wagon sa car finder once in a while.

check out our website <www.clubopelph.com> alam ko si edl100 is selling his zafira. He's the administator at clubopel and he also posts dito sa tsikot.

zafira na lang para may support kasa chevy. yun opel ata tinigil na dito

mas inclined ako actually sa astra na wagon... puro casa ba parts nya or may resellers na na cheaper? How about yung mga gumagawa? Kaya na ba na outside the casa?

May parts siya via Thunder Automotive and Olympia sa Araneta. Not sure if well stocked na ang Olympia. Dati kasi parang consumables pa lang ang meron.

To euro_c:

Both the Astra and the Zafira are very good choices as a used car. The Vectra is also a good car but I do not recommend it if you are not too familiar with Opels..

Although I would recommend the Zafira since it seats 7 and has a dual aircon. Also, Chevrolet has complete know-how about the zafira with foreign technical update support and parts inventory.

Remember, these cars are very expensive when it was sold brand new. The astra wagon at P850,000 while the Zafira at P1,150,000...

PARTS: There are places in Banawe and Araneta Ave that sells Opel parts. They are abundant and are not really very expensive. They also have replacement parts that are all made in Germany so you are sure that they are really durable.

MECHANICS: Mato Tan's Fronte motors in Banawe are experts in Opel service and have a complete lineup of parts. There are also mechanics that I know from GM Casa that can do home service for the car at a very reasonable fee. Suspension, aircon and mechanicals are very simple and can be done in any competent repairshop. ex. autoteknika, speedyfix etc..

FUEL CONSUMPTION: The astra has a very good fuel consumption for a 1600 engined car. The zafira's 1800 engine is a bit thirsty but still very reasonable.

OPEL CAR CLUB: There is a Philippines based www CLUB OPEL PH with a forum about the cars and its overall ownership experience..
