both the astra and corsa are no longer in production in india. the astra is definitely the more comfortable and touugh car of the 2, but production stopped in 2003 (when the optra was introduced), so spares may become an issue. GM claims that it stocks 10 years spares but how does one verify the claim? i bought my corsa in 2003 and its been a great car to own.
i'm sure you can pretty much convert any car to CNG, including both the astra and the corsa. i've seen used car ads in bombay for the corsa LPG as well.
the astra is pretty difficult to come by in the second hand market. i think a 2002 club model should be yours for just under 2L |
