Question 1

What are the known problems of the Opel Astra L's 1.2 Turbo engine?

Accepted Answer

The three-cylinder 1.2 Turbo, shared across Stellantis, has a timing belt running in oil that can wear early and shed debris into the oil circuit. Ask whether the belt was checked or replaced to the revised schedule, and watch for high oil consumption.

Question 2

Which used Opel Astra generation should I choose?

Accepted Answer

An Astra K after its 2019 update, with the newer three-cylinder petrol and 1.5 diesel engines, is good value. The Astra L is more modern inside and the only one offered as a plug-in hybrid or electric car.

Question 3

How much road tax does a used Astra plug-in hybrid pay in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

Usually the €30 minimum, as a plug-in hybrid is taxed on its engine's low official CO₂ figure, and an Astra Electric pays the same flat €30. A diesel Astra pays half as much again as a petrol one with the same CO₂.

Question 4

Which versions does the new Opel Astra come in, in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

The hatchback comes as a 145 PS hybrid, a 196 PS plug-in hybrid and a 156 PS electric car, all automatic, in Edition, GS and Ultimate trims. The Sports Tourer estate adds a 130 PS diesel.
