I was working in Germany at the time and had the chance to order a private import Kadett rather than buying in the UK, and the options were far more numerous, but the base L and GL cars were also less well specified. Vauxhall Astra with "Optional Sports Alloy Road Wheels - GL only" from the brochure. -- Last edit: 2015-04-29 18:28:50
