description
the opel astra twintop is sold in the uk as a vauxhall / the english astra twintop is identical to its german sibling apart from the v-shaped grille, the badges and of course the right-hand drive / both cars are so close that the first official vauxhall pictures are only retouched opel ones / technical data do not vary, but the engine range is narrower than at opelphotos
