Enlightened.... Thanx Hi Friends,
I've come to know about TEAM-BHP while I was trying to know more about Opel Astra 1.6 and was searching all over. Could not find a decent website where I could get the real information which I wanted and needed to know..... the most.... thanx to all the intelligent, experienced and creative guys whoz reviews and comments I read from the threads on Opel Astra.... I'm really thankful guyz.... thanx for sharing your knowledge.
Coming to the point... I had a Matiz-2001 which I sold few days back.. and now I want to go for a bigger and better car... i mean not a small car again. The other day I've driven my uncle's Astra 1.6... it was simply amazing... and there was absolutely no fault in whatsoever.... it was made in 1998 and has run 65k... and giving about 8kmpl with A/C in the city(...as the driver said it).... he wants to dispose it off as he's not really using it.... and it's really affordable for me.... the moment I drove it I felt like lets take the car and if it really has a maintenance problem I could just forget the money I invested coz I'll have all kinds of comforts that I enjoy in the mean time.... I hardly drive about 500kms/month.... but what's bugging me is people around me are scaring me about it's maintenance and expensive spare parts and all that... and some say spares are not really available and all that.... and that's something that's really confusing me.
Most of my doubts are cleared with that other guy who was repeatedly asking about his astra which was done some 93k.... anyways, do you guys suggest me to go for it or shall I stick back to low maintenance car like 800 or zen.... please give me your suggestion asap b'coz I've to tel my uncle if I want to buy it by tomorrow morning....
thanx for reading this thru friends... soNy |
