1989 Vauxhall Astra GTE 2.0 8v petrol from UK and Ireland
Summary:
Fast and unreliable fun
Faults:
Starter motor.
Welding in the wheel arches which is quite common in Astras.
Trackrod ends.
General Comments:
Once I got it tuned, it performed much better than I expected, it pulls through all the gears and with a K&N air filter it gives it a low grunting sound.
What a belta.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
