Why Did You Buy An Opel

[Apex]

The320i is the “Poverty” pack but still a well balanced and decent car to drive
, my mum has a E46 330i and it is without a doubt the best car I have ever driven, only gripe I have with it is the fact the driving aids cant be switched off

In my opinion BMW is the bench mark as to how cars should drive.:snooty:

I started out life in my grandads hand me down for escort mk 2 which i wrecked in the first mnth of having it on the road.. my car history then goes like this:

UK

1.3 Vauxhall Astra Van Mk 1
1.3 Sri Vauxhall Astra Mk 2
1.6 Vauxhall Cavalier Stationwagon/Estate

Australia

Nissan Pulsar 86 model i think (basically same as Hoden Astra - many shared parts)
1.8 Holden Astra TS Equipe
1.3 Holden Barina SB
1.4 Holden Barina/XC
2.2 SRi Holden/Opel Astra TS 2003

I kinda like gm/vauxhall/holden/opel, always been good cars very few problems.

Had my opel astra g for about 11 months now (first car)

I wanted a VT/VX commo for AGES. Saved for one since i was about 14.

Birthday was getting close and thats when petrol prices where going crazy and predicted at like 2 bucksa Ltr by christmas or some crap. so dad talked me out of getting the commo and going for somthing a lil more fuel effecient. (this took many heated debates)

so i started looking at small cars betwen 10-12 grand and my astra was the best i could find within that pricerange.

Glad my dad talked me into getting it

all the BMW's, Mercs, and most VW's you have driving on your roads, come out of the Uitenhague Factory in Port Elizabeth....Ive been there, ive seen it...

Not quiet all.

The M-B M Class and G Class come from America as does the BMW Z4 and X5

At the end of the day they think it is some kind of status symbol - best ones are those in the 318's - now are they ordinary or what!?

in sydney, most beemer's on the road are "company" cars, that doesnt do anything for me..
