Astra | Dan's Things

This is a post where I will share various bits of information regarding the third generation of the Vauxhall Astra – including adverts, articles, forum posts, pictures, media appearances and more.

The second generation (sometimes referred to as the Mark II) Vauxhall Astra was produced between 1991 and 1998. It continued the already popular and established Astra model line with updated looks and safety features ready for the new decade ahead. The car was made available in various body styles including hatchback, saloon, estate and cabriolet – the latter being designed by Bertone.

The car was sold throughout Europe as the Opel Astra F and as the Holden Astra in Australia.

This was one of my favourite shows of the year, if not one of my favourite of all time. I grew up playing rally video games as a kid and thought rally cars were the coolest thing (and still do). This day out was a fantastic time to watch some of these legendary cars going up and down the hill climb, all while being able to get up close and personal with the cars in the paddocks. Aside from the rally legends, there were a few other interesting cars present on the day.
