Default Astra

It is a hatchback. The Opel (and Vauxhall) Astra is one of the best selling
cars in Europe for the past 10 yrs. I have a customer who has owned many
(obviously he's from Europe) and he like many ppl I have talked to praise
the Astra.

The Saturn version will have a totally different engine than the Opel
version, a new 1.8L 140hp belt driven engine will be the only option.
Besides that, I have read the specs on gmpowertrain and it looks exciting.
should be on sale in Jan '08.
