I had my Astra GTE 16v from June 1998 to September 2000. The Astra was completely standard at first and like most need some work doing. The Astra had rust in the usual places (wheel arches and sills). I had all the rust removed, this included renewing both sills, 2 new wheel arches and a new boot. I had the Astra fully resprayed in a pearlesent blue.
