The two-year manufacturer's warranty for new cars that Opel offers in place of the legally required, basic guarantee underlines the fact that GTC drivers, like all Opel's customers, buy a high-quality car.


Astra buyers also make the right choice in terms of "re-sale value". Thanks not least to its excellent retention of value, the Astra is at the top of its segment. Just weeks after the new model line had been introduced, the Eurotax Schwacke market observation company, for instance, forecast a remaining value of 51 percent of the purchasing price after 36 months and a mileage of 60,000 kilometers.


The new Opel Astra GTC not only has excellent resale value - cost of ownership is minimized by low fuel consumption, long service intervals and minimum maintenance requirements, too. The inspection is due only after up to two years or up to 30,000 or 50,000 kilometers for gasoline- and diesel-engined models respectively. Customers also benefit from Opel Astra's repair-friendly design and the resulting low workshop costs and short standstill times. Other advantages, like the possible replacement of damaged parts individually and the use of bolted rather than welded joints in many crash-relevant locations also pay off for the customer in the form of advantageous insurance premiums. Those for the five-door Astra, for instance, are as much as 20 percent lower than those for its predecessor. Insurance experts have signaled that similar rates will be offered to Astra GTC owners.
