Please give me some feedback about how this works for you. One difference is that in this one I will be giving the names of the members on the trip and details of the trip which will be of more interest to the members than the folks who look at the blog for the pictures.

The most powerful unit offered is a gasoline 1.6-liter direct-injected, which develops 200 hp.įor the diesel units, Opel offers a brand new 1.6-liter bi-turbo engine, which has the same characteristics as an older 2.0 turbodiesel powerplant, offering 160 hp and 350 Nm.In the past when I have gone on a Jeepers Creepers run I have sent out to members a report on the run and a separate blog with my pictures. It can be coupled with an Easytronic transmission for best fuel consumption results and get a combined 4.2 liter/100 km (56 mpg). The base engine is a turbocharged gasoline 1.0-liter three-cylinder with 105 hp. By working on new components, new materials and also new engines, Opel succeeded to reduce the model's weight compared to the generation it replaces with 150 kg (330 lbs). One of the biggest achievements for the bodywork was to cut down the weight. With all the seats in the upright position, the trunk space is a decent 540 liters (19 cu-ft).Ī very important modification is for the rear occupants, where they gained 28 mm (1.1 in) in legroom and 26 mm (1 in) in headroom. After certain modifications, the Astra Sports Tourer gained a lot of trunk space, reaching a total of 1630 liters (57.3 cu-ft) with the rear seats folded down. The hardest job for Opel was to build a car with almost the same length of the outgoing generation, but bigger inside. Whether it was known as the Caravan or, more recently, the Sports Tourer, it is still the classic station wagon for half of Europe and the UK.

The Astra Sports Tourer is one of the most iconic vehicles in the Opel range.
