I.VE HAD 1. GOT IT 97 STARTED MODS IN 2005 .. LEFT THE X SHE KEEP THE CAR AFTER 2 YEARS GOT THE CAR BACK
 
i have had 5 my first car was a 5 door mk3 1.4 spi 5 door then got a corsa sri wish i hadant bothered lol then a 1.6 16v artic 2 done a xe conversion was nice car till someone wiped it out in morisons car park then a n reg astra brertone convertible then my gsi i love it but am realy liking the phase 2 gsi now like and my daily driver at the moment is a mk3 bertone convertible
 
i've had 2, a 1.4 merit and my estate.
tbh i prefered the merit for reliability as my sport is throwing a fit everytime i drive it atm:sad:

seriously thinkin about getting rid and getting an 8 valve astra or cav sri.

i've never had so much trouble with a car.

had loads of mk2's though.
 
1.4 MPI - first car, did me proud. Solid as a rock, but the engine was just too weak after a while.

180iE - What can i say? This is going to be one hell of an Astra, one day.

1.8 16v Cesaro - AKA 'The Grot Box'. It's fun driving a car without a care in the world as to whether it survives!
 
Had a White 1.4 LS, a Red 1.6 16v Sport and my current 'GSi' 2.0 16v...

So to answer your qurestion, I've had 3 and own 1! :heh:
 
it's quite reassuring that all you started with sh!tters too :lol:
ive had 2... 1.4 spi "special edition" California, merit with a black dash :thumb:(soon to be in my newer..)
1.4MPI GLS with all electrics, the one thing i miss is the 'fornia had r c/l, whereas the GLS doesn't :doh: i'm sure i'll get it sometime though :p
 
ive had 2...

a 1.6 si 8v.. which was pretty quick for what it was but the arches were pretty knackered and there was no comforts like power steering etc. but i guess it got me into modding cars :cool:

astra gsi
which i own now, having a few problems with it at the moment but trying realy hard to get back the feeling of when i first bought the car. maybe spending some wages at the end of the month will bring the car to life again:nod:
 
first gsi bought in feb this year
