Opel Astra 1998 reviews

Pros: For my good car, it works perfectly, it has 275.000km and 18 years old is 1.6 petrol, and of breakdowns I had to change the ignition coil as it sometimes gave me jerks (at 265.000km~) internal intake manifold (at 250.000km~) throttle part (at 240.000km ~) the clutch at 230.000km because when my sister and I got my license we used it, and it did not hold so much.
The other ordinary maintenance and changes, the front shock absorbers lasted me until 260.000km and the rear ones I changed them around 230.000km, because I had a slight fault in itv.
The electronics are all good, except the radio which I changed for one with usb, although the original one lasted 12 years without problems.
For my experience I am very happy with the car, I have taken care of it, revisions a year, visibility of mirrors is very good and normal consumption, the only thing that would be missing is a 6 gear, the gearbox is perfect, it does not shake or goes very loose, it goes like the first day.
I recommend this car if it has been well looked after, I will extend it as long as I can.

Cons: I have no complaints about the vehicle, I am doing very well with its 18 years and 275.000km behind it.
