Hi there,
I'm Richard, live in Sydney near Parramatta, and am looking for a new car for my wife to drive around in, and stumbled across the Astra diesel, as I have a diesel X-Trail as a work car, and love the way the diesels drive. She doesn't drive really far, so her 3L V6 Vienta is using a bit much fuel for my liking, and I thought we could get a smaller car, as mine is now what we use for holidays, etc.
We drove a My2006.5 Astra diesel manual on the weekend, and man, do they go! I would have to get used to the indicators, they are a bit odd! My wife didn't mind it either, so now we're waiting to see if the dealer rings back with a reasonable offer...
This one had 80,000 kms on it, when's the timing belt service due on these? Is there anything else I need to know or look for on it?
Thanks for the welcome.
