hello.

1.6 seems a bit small mate but then again, wat can i say i drive a 1.4

[anasta-cabrio]

I am living on a small Island and 1.6 engine with 105hp is good for my needs :)
No roads to speed up so i'm enjoying the "topless" driving and the sunny weather ;)

Sorry for not posting the pics untill now... Promise to post them soon !

Nice to meet you guys :D

[SRi_Jimbo]

Geia sou!!

Which island in Greece? My parents are from Peloponiso, Sparti to be exact!!

El Burito, most Astras are 1.4L in Hellas!!

[bornwild]

How'dy mate!

Most cars in Europe for that matter are up to 1.8L.
A 2.0l engine is considered to be a large engine in Europe.

No question about that!

I remember when I had my old SRI and was in Greece tellin my cousins that it was a 2.2L, they freaked!

That's why I love seeing our 6.0L Commodores over in the UK! haha

yasou ki esena mr corsa :)

Its true what you re saying about 1,4L cars in Greece
I dont know why... Maybe for the gas economy or the low prices...

me too, i was like to buy a 1.4 because the island is small but i prefer the 1.6 for the ballance of speed - L/100klm - and cost of service, insurance e.t.c ;)

I think that in Greece, cars are more expensive than other Countries... Is it true?

[Vectracious]

Xairete Beasca!! :D

Yeah, when I was there a couple of years ago - most Astra's (and a lot of other small cars) were all 1.4 - I think its to do with the tax system - bigger engine - more rego/tax you have to pay.

I was telling my cousins in Greece that Dad drove a car with a 3.6L engine in it, and it freaked them out (considering all I would hear over there was "Einai xiliari re file??" :p )

Anyway - Kalos Orisate BeAsCa :D

[Geebs]

Po po, so many greeks here lol

Kai vevaios milao ellinika anasta...

Rodos is nice, my best friend here in Australia's parents are from Rodo...

Pred, we might be xorianoi lol

...and yeah, its due to the tax and also cost or running a bigger engine car, in comparison the cost of fuel is similar to us, however when u consider what perentage that is of the average wage, its no comparison whatsoever!

[Vectracious]

Pred, we might be xorianoi lol


There's lots of xorianoi around here!!!! :D

Good point about the wages, considering how much things cost over there, I'm surprised that people can afford 1E/L fuel - I think the base wage is something like 35E a day!!!!

Of course there is also a lot of syntaxi (pension) rorting going on as well... dodgy greeks!! :rolleyes:

[xplosv57]

Should i get the spit out and get the gyros happening or what lol????

P.S. welcome to the club!!!!

[anasta-cabrio]
