I think I've found a replacement for the Vec C!

Great looking car.....makes the new Golf look lukewarm

I reckon this will be the small car Holden builds from 3rd quarter 2010. GM media says a sedan and hatch will be built at Elizabeth. This could be the RHD build site for SE Asia for Astra models.

The Cruze however, is still in the running, as the hatch version (as yet unseen) may end up being built here alongside the sedan with Elizabeth supplying the hatch as an export model.

Shape reminds me of the Hundi i30. Other than that looks nice, yes the wheels are 18'' or 19''

the i30 is much more upright in the rear. It has those huge upright rear lights remember?
although the window shape is similar

True the front looks similar maybe its just the headlights. I see the back is totally different, what was i thinking :rolleyes:

Finally a pic LOL

Looks alright, although it's only a side on shot, want to see more - front looks Daewoo-ish from that angle...

Good job overall.

Again, photoshops. They're just edited H's.

Not a fan of this one. There's no unique/distinctive features. The extra curves make it look like a girl's car. It looks like a hybrid Mazda-Alfa.

Still, I'm prepared to eat my words when we see some real shots.

Same here.

However I didn't like the current Astra the first time I saw it. Now I have one.

*edit* pics removed, off topic - poita

I thought this was the new Astra thread (of which there is one 'official' pic)

Don't really see that myself, but IMO those headlights scream BMW LOL...

Chop jobs those pics might be, but if they're close to the real deal I'm not liking this new Astra :(

At this stage I'm moving closer and closer to switching camps and going over to the dark side (Ford) for the 1st time ever for my next everyday car purchase, really liking the new Fiesta and some of the other 'brands' new small car releases :)
