I need advice from any cabrio owners out there.

Convince me why or why not I should own an Astra cabrio.

I've found a couple of late model units (one silver, one black) that I quite fancy, and need to make a decision as quickly as possible on what to do. Buy, or walk away?

I am keen on getting into a HSV Astra, but I can't see them even getting here for another year at least the way things are going at the moment, and I've always had a dream of owning a cabrio.

So . . . help me decide guys. Yes, or no?

well i cant convince you to go the convertable, mainly because i'd rather be in the HSV Astra.. but as you said, it's gonna be while, and that even if they do go ahead with importing it..

if you were to get the cabrio would you be getting the turbo or NA one?

if i were you, i'd wait to find out for sure if the HSV Astra will be for real, and just stick it out in your current car until then..

And for the slower people on the site (eg. bassy and btm) roof go down


The astra cabrio is one of my fav cabrios, next to the Saab 9-3 aero, I say go for it, I've heard that the VXR is not due out till late next year anyway, get in one while you still can!

Oh, btw summer's coming... you'll need it! I've seen some nice ones going around.
