Hello, from Uruguay

[mmasner]

Hello to everyone.
Sorry for writing in english, but I don’t speak German. I am from Uruguay, a small country in South America.
I have a 2004 Astra. Here the Astras are manufactured in Brazil by Chevrolet (another GM subsidary) instead of Opel.

Let me upload a few pictures.

By the way, your website is terrific.

Best regards
Marcelo Masner

Hello friends.

Thank you for such warm welcome.

As requested by Yellopunch I'm uploading the only picture that I have of the interiour. I suppose it is the same that your cars in Germany.

The weather here is awful!!! Very sunny and hot (almost 30°). :D :D :D

So, as soon as I finish this post, I'll will go the beach.

Best regards
Marcelo

Hello,
your car has a very cool bodykit. The backlights look very fine. And you have a seat heater. It is necessary in Uruguay by 30°C ? 8)

@radio-fritzel, this is no Bodykit, these are original Chevrolet Bodyparts....
hmm .... clean back and nice frontbumper...chevy parts looking better i guess

[JMartin]

Hello and nice to meet you here in the internet. Nice car! An interesting radio do you have, is it an original Chevrolet part?

Greetings from Germany!

[Osirus]

these are original Chevrolet Bodyparts

It's the Facelift!
The "first" series had the same body parts than the Astra here in Germany.

[SilverG 1.2]

okay maybe, but they are original GM

[mmasner]

Hello,

SilverG1.2 is right. The front and rear spoilers are original parts but they're optionals (I don't know if will understand what I'm saying. It means that the standard model doesn't have theses spoilers.)

JMartin, nice to meet you too.
The radio is original part of GM. As you can see it is commanded by buttons in the steering wheel. The display is in the same screen that the computer. In Astras before 2007 it reproduces MP3.

PS in a mexican forum I founded a very complete factory manual with about 3000 pages (of course in spanish).
If you're insterested please let me know so I give you the link (I hope it continues active).

[SilverG 1.2]

I know what you mean with optional :-D it is like the "OPC-Line" Paket in Germany.... how much cost this paket?

[mmasner]

Sorry to be "so specific" with the optionals.

Well, the cost is about EUR 400.-
