    Well its an Opel Astra, but being GM they are sold under many brand names. The Opel Corsa was a holden in australia for awhile, chevrolet in south america. The vauxhall VXR8 is a Holden Commodore.
    Regardless, I am never touching Vauxhall with a bargepole again.

    Why is it that after this thread I am skeptical that the pictured car is yours and not simply from google images:
    Cars-Owned

    - - - Updated - - -

    I pay £760 a year insurance, £170 a year tax, £80 for the last inspection before the repair work.
    £1010 or 1244 euros. This is on a 3 door hatchback with a 1 litre engine and with additional named drivers on my insurance policy. Without the extra drivers Im looking at about as much for insurance alone and on an alpha V6 I'm looking at more tax and insurance too.
    Ful is £1.30 per litre according to my last refill receipt. Fluctuates near daily. 1.6 euros. Recently paid 1.36 which is 1.68 euros.
    Although the comparison was meant to be with america not finland

    You better touch a VXR8 before you die. You haven't lived until you've driven one

    It is my first car, and its quite good:

    Honda Jazz 2004 (pre Facelift) 1.4l 83 hp.
    It was the car of my parents before and we had no problem in the 150.000 km
    Its small outside, but big inside, more space than in some combi-vans :D
    Nice little car, friendly but not sporty... Really not sporty in ANY way.
    I love it.

    (not exacly mine... Just a image from the internet... I will upload a pic of mine soon)

    PS: I have to renew the HU (Hauptuntersuchung, also called TÜV) the next week. Sorry, I dont know the english word for this.

    Greetings,

    haha herrlich xD google hätte geholfen. the word you are looking for is general service. the one that you have to do every 2 years.

    edit: in germany. don't know how it works in other countries. and that people call it TÜV is wrong. it's called general service. there was only one assiciation for a long time where you could do this and this was called litterally translated "technical supervision assiciation" (in germany "Technischer Überwachungsverein") called TÜV.
