Thought I'll find the Opel shop in HKG and take a peek. They had the new Vectra but ..... this I wanted to see. VX220 Turbo. Very nice. AUS$85,000.

The one they had in the showroom was sold. So no way they would even let me sit in it the bastards! :cry:

As for accessories, they had nothing! I mean nothing! I asked and they just shrugged. I couldnt speak Cantonese as it's sh!thouse and they would of just laughed at me. I was hoping to see heaps of items up for grabs, caps, shirts, badges, flags, umbrellas, spare parts ....etc. I wished.

As for the location, if I can remember ...... between Wan Chai and Causeway Bay on Gascoine (spell) Road. It's along the Harbour. Forfront Motors I think. Look for the Lamborghini showroom cause it's a couple of doors down!

I just hope they jazz up the place with some stuff after I asked if there was any.

They don't sell accessories & parts @ showroom. a showroom in Hong Kong is just what it is - a showroom (for sale of cars only).

the service centre is quite far IIRC and the underground (MTR) doesn't go there. most parts & accessories are available @ service centres. unfortunately since Opel is low volume in HK, they don't stock much any way & would need to be ordered in. the HK distributor also distributes Saab & they rightly or wrongly put more focus on Saab than Opel...

Dregger, if you haven't got a head unit already, pick one up while u're there. the price are around 60% of those here. my mate picked up a Pioneer in-dash DVD/VCD/MP3/WMA player (no screen) for less than AUD$700. comes with international warranty too! if u need more info on where to buy general car stuff, feel free to PM me.

Forfront Motors is correct.

there are lots of showrooms there. including Lamborghini/Lotus, Lexus, Alfa etc.
