Most if not all holden dealerships will be fine with servicing. Also any euro specialist will be able to do minor servicing on it without issues.
As for parts. We recommend ordering what you need from overseas. Autovaux in the uk can help with any parts you need.

Thanks for the reply Guy. What ball part figure would I be looking at for servicing? Is it still the case that servicing is capped with Holden? So I'm taking that minor parts that would be included in servicing would be easy to get e.g brake pads, timing belts etc, but if for example the starter motor needed to be replaced I would then need to order from the uk? Sorry for the questions, I'm trying to get my head around to see if it's worth to buy. This would be a family car, so I have concerns, but damn this car is really nice!Originally Posted by guy 27

Your local Holden dealer, or any other company/mechanic for that matter, would have no problems at all servicing the car and sourcing parts. Holden would have most, if not all, regular genuine service parts in stock and most companies can get you aftermarket parts as well. If you use a local mechanic, you can always negotiate to supply your own parts which can be bought from overseas very easy and relatively cheap. Your Holden dealer would have set prices for services so i'd ask for a quote prior to a service. You're right, it is a very nice car indeed.

Thank you for the reply Dutchy. It's a damn shame that Opel didn't stick it out here in oz, I think if they did there marketing correctly and word of mouth got out, the brand would've been a real contender. Hell I didn't even know the brand at all until I started looking for a family car. Fingers crossed the French decide to give it another go in oz!

i recently got my OPC astra service at holden, $349 for service. thought that was ok for a dealership service. you'll find most holden dealerships are Opel designated service centres
Awesome to hear! Thanks for that bud
