Good morning,
The car is from 2006 and has about 190,000 kilometers on it. It's an Opel Astra GTC 1.6l (petrol engine).
It's also been serviced according to the service history. Should you consider buying it?

Loading...Let's see who dares to take it on… I have a Piaggio Xevo 125cc scooter with a 200cc cylinder. Because the camshaft and sliding rocker arms were worn out, I installed a set of roller rocker arms from a Vespa GTS. The rocker arm shafts (10mm) are mounted in the head with 12mm bearings. I…

Good day everybody, I lost my driver's license over six months ago. I then applied to have the suspension period reduced. Today I received a letter stating that the application was approved, meaning I'll be able to drive again on April 20, 2022. It also states that my lawyer will deliver the driver's license. To…
First of all, for my vehicle there are no high performance alternators (300A) Since it drives a 10kW audio system, very high performance is required, which also requires the installation of an alternator, which requires special brackets, etc. Where can you get something like this done? It's rather difficult to find in regular workshops.
I have a pit bike without indicators and I want to install indicators what electronics do I need
Hello, I bought a "transitional car" that will last about a year or two. I've now picked one out and inspected it. It costs just under €2,000. The dealer is re-registering the car, and I can pick it up next week. We agreed on a €300 deposit and for the re-registration. I received a receipt…
Hello!
Technically, the Astra-H is fine and had already overcome his childhood diseases in 2006, he is not a ruster. Important: Tooth belt and water pump! Both old Opel stations, both not expensive to change, but all the more expensive when it breaks and consequential damages come.
If the car is a checkbook, not too many pre-owners, is in the age-related good care condition with good tires and brakes etc. and is received original, you can think about buying well. It is a claimless car, inexpensive in maintenance, just “Opel – the Reliable”. Unfortunately, the workmanship in the interior is not particularly sturdy, for this the engine and manual and full automatic transmission are good (the Easytronic is crap and not recommended).
2500 Euros are honestly fair with new TÜV – the Astra-H is still in demand because it is good to recommend a very popular car even for beginners for whom it is highly recommended thanks to its lamm-from-the-range driving behavior and its lack of entitlement, and if everything fits, why not. I would negotiate, something is always going – or you should arrange the change of toothed belts, tension roller and water pump if you still stand out for 2500 euros plus new TÜV. There can’t go much wrong, 190000 Km are average for a 13 year old car. Every interested person should be aware that such cars are not to be fished for 500 euros, even the typical gravel-field Ali already pays more for such “old irons” in purchasing and then wants to have for it around the 2000 euros.
In general, the Opels have always been better than their reputation, I have also liked to drive Opel (Omega) and can neither speak negatively about the brand nor about spare parts prices, etc. Are real working animals for everyday life!
A lot of success – but I would take someone to visit because four eyes see more than two.
Such a car is interesting under the following circumstances:
If that doesn’t happen to both, finger away. Better for a little more money buy a younger, less run car. This is usually cheaper in the longer term.
For me there is no reason to do this, but if you are looking for a cheap car and the Astra generally meets your needs, you can do that. As always, it is also a price question whether the afterthinking is worthwhile.
Depends on what it costs.
I would not pay more than 500€ for him, so practically drive a bit and then throw away.
It costs about 2,500 euros. Okay, then probably not 😉
Oh, man.
At 190.000 km and 13 years, 2500 euros are completely overpriced.
If it is the 1.6 with 115 hp: Ensure that the toothed belt has been changed (at 150’000).
The engine is otherwise a pretty iron pig. The car in itself is not so the bringer but a cheaply entertained used car and I wouldn’t worry about the engine.
the engine will disappoint you, is too weak for the body.
Too expensive. Did you pass your license by now???
You should ask if the previous owner with the car has frequently travelled long distance and whether he has driven the car reasonably warm and cold. Because if you don’t, then it’s the one that’s shredded. And even if yes, 2500€ is too much.
