1993 Vauxhall Astra Merit 1.4 injection from UK and Ireland
Summary:
Poor man's Vectra
Faults:
Nothing really changed from the mk2 to the mk3 Astra, I've had both but if I could put this engine in the mk2 Astra I had I think I would be happier, really feel like a big girl's blouse in this model but overall it's not a bad car.
General Comments:
Anyone got a Evo 6 they don't want?
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I had one of these... again it was OK for 3 months. Was OK on fuel, didn't seem to want much. Not a bad drive. Accelerated like a doughnut in a bath. Clutch went (just like that!!!).
Then the timer belt.. Life eh.
Vauxhalls STINK.
