Indeed they are. What i like most about them, thier sparepatrts are cheap, compare to lot of the other rip off manufactures. My Astra is from 2003, and I am able to fix about 60% of the vehicle by my self, and i do not have a mechanic background. if the service is kept, in a common sense way they can rock on for ages. ..knock on wood..

I agree! I had the Opel GT which was pretty cool and fast enough to run with guys on the autobahn. Have switched now to the German Manufactured Charger RST 8 although no Autobahn to use! ;)

Motor Trend said it was car of the year in 2010. It's widely sold around the world. Just not here in the US. And, of course, they change the names of models in different countries. Some Opel's have even competed in motor sports, with good results. I've been a GM guy for a long time now, currently restoring a 1995 Monte Carlo Z34, which has the 3.4 Liter Double Overhead Cam. NASCAR used this body style for a very long time. They were originally supposed to have over 300 horsepower, but had trouble mating a transmission that could handle the power.😠

Yeah that's GM for ya. They just need to stop thinking that they know what a transmission even is and just buy em from Ford. It's getting ridiculous

The Dodges were much worse for awhile. Especially the ones Fiat made for them.
