Ik zou graag alle technische details willen weten van de nieuwe 1.7 CDTI motor
die Opel gaat voeren.
Helaas heeft Ople zelf nog geen brochures.
Wie wel ??

The weight listed for this car seems way too low. Vauxhall (not Opel, I know)
website has it listed at 1346kg therefore 111.44 ps/tonne.
See www.vauxhall.co.uk
for 5 door Astra SRi 1.9CDTi 16v (150PS)
Thats the weight claimed by Autozeitung who made the tracktest

Well, it's still wrong, even the smaller 1.7CDTi weighs in at 1330kg. I would of
thought the manufacturer would be much more accurate about the specifications of
a vehicle than a typical automotive magazine who often print many mistakes.
Further, would'nt a website that prides itself on testing official standard
production vehicles want as accurate as possible data listed on its site?
The magaxine may well have weighed the car so their figure could actually be
more real world than the manufacturers claim.....

Even this website has the 1.7CDTi version at 1320kg (much closer to the
manufacturers claims of 1330kg). If the mag 'actually' measured the weight of
the 1.9 at 1208kg then Vauxhall must be at the cutting edge of weight saving in
this sports segment because all other competition is at least 125kg heavier. I
don't think so somehow.

Correction: 1.9CDTi 120bhp version at 1320kg. Rest of point remains
manufactor claims in europe are curb weight + driver... the car magazine posted
the dry weight number which is correct .. all mistakes cleared number is correct
