Had a Vauxhall Astra on the ramp this afternoon for a checkover underneath.
Good grief - what a load a flimsy, poor quality tat. Served to remind me how well designed and built these E30 things are.

What model was it? The GSI's use the same subframe etc as the Cavalier and are very strong. The other ones though I have to admit are pretty dire.

I've been driving about in an R-reg Polo for the last month or so and although it's German, the quality compared to my E30 is appauling. It felt awful to drive, I was so glad I got my E30 back on the road today!
