I asked: "Why do you hate Opels/Vauxhalls?" and you responded #blogpost
Im honestly amazed, i bet every single one of you waited for someone to ask this question so that you can get your anger about them out without you starting the fight first, right? Well, there are people who love Opel and then there are those who love some Opels and those who dont like Opel at all. Why? Well im going to explain almost every comment here.

There are 2 parts.
Ok, i whouldnt say they made boring cars in 80s to 2010. Look at Omega (i will get to that reponse later), Senator, Manta, Monza, Kadett GSi, Astra GSi? The Astra GSi has a amazing front to make it look more agressive and less “old people style”. “Crap after crap”. What? Alright, i understand Opel did some questionable things, but they werent crap. Jeremy Clarkson said that the Opel Zafira is all that he needed for his “Car of the year 2000” and said the only problem is that its a Vauxhall, probobly wasnt serious so that he can make the Multipla joke. What about that 2008 Opel Astra OPC, it has so much torque when you accelerate its stearing wheel will start going to the left. How brutal is that? Thats one example and there are many other ones, just check Irmscher Opels and you will understand everything…
Raregliscor1 experience:
That really depends on what version your mom had. I dont understand how are Vectras only boring in UK while in other parts of Europe they are full of character… Oh yea, i remember, because Jeremy Clarkson said its bad… Why? Because he likes Ford and who is the rivalry to Ford? GM, and what GM owns? Opel…

Mr.AMWV10 comment:
I saw his profile, im not even surprised why he doesnt love Opels (no ofense). Anyways, good thing that chavs dont buy Saxos, Golfs, Clios and other hatchbacks, nope they buy Opels (not only Corsas, they buy all of them). Makes no sence… Why then not hate Citroen, why not hate VW, why not hate Renault? Is it because your parents thought you that more expesive means better, fine then imma buy a Hummer and see if the price payed off… Opel was never meant to be like BMW where they made expensive luxurious cars. No, Opel is made for people who dont have much money but need a new realiable car. Opel has everything for everyone from Coupes RWD and Coupes FWD and Coupes AWD, Hatchbacks, Sedans RWD and FWD, Vagons RWD and FWD, Muscle cars, small eco-boxes… And i asked for the car and not for owners.
Makes no sence how people only say bad stuff about bad cars and how bad their owners are, but for expensive cars like Mercedeses people dont say sht because they are afraid…
People on CT need to learn to have their own opinions.
Dennis comment:
This one doesnt really make sence, since i asked about the cars not their owners but anyways. I didnt find any source, but it doesnt make any sence… I already discussed “boring cars”. As i said a million times and everybody on the planet knows: Opel is not meant to be a high qualitiy, they make cheap cars for people blah blah blah.
That part about them losing identitiy is true
So now here goes those that really dont need a explanation or that i explained earlier:
And now for people who actually like them:
Alright, thank you all who i guess love Opel like me :D
But why did i make the blog? Well because Opel is a hidden gem and nobody is paying attention because everybody is focused on other peoples opinions. We had a Opel Astra F Caravan the car was full of character, just driving it you are cheering for it to get you places (ofc we are poor so we had a broken car). Its exhaust was broken and when my dad floored it, it was the best sound ever, you just chouldnt smile :D
Now we have a Opel Vectra C, (125bhp) when you floor it, its like your body and soul are left behind. Plus its one of the best Opels ever, it is very safe, very fast, very good looking, rust is rare only thing missing is that it should be RWD and people whould go nuts for it.
Why did i include people who also love Opel?
Because they are not afraid to show it, they arent scared of their opinion.

Dylan Smit Darnihx Szymek S u probobly dont remember me but i put 6 and a half hours in this post
I remember you. You comment on and like a lot of my articles.
But 6 hours? Wow. I usually take about 2-2.5. That’s some real dedication man, kudo’s.
Cool pic behind my comment too, Senator’s and Monza’s. Just what I like.
I love Opels,they are so rare on the streets.
Well you should of found my other post when i asked people about it :D
Ala ubi se ti😂😂
a ti kao jesi
I think some of your points are kind of nulled. You used modified examples of cars to try and prove the Manufacturers did something good. They didn’t. Like my opinion on the Omega. I, in my head, when you said mentioned the Omega, I was thinking of a standard Omega, from the factory, uninterfered by people. And that, is a boring car.
i know.
But what about other things i said
It is not an interesting car to look at, granted, but it drives pretty nicely. And with the V6 it’s pretty fast too.
Though the B-generation LittleFun pictured isn’t my favorite.
I’d go for a nice A with the 3.0 24V Ram-Air straight six. It’s basically a baby Lotus.
personally I like the Omega because it has the potential to be turned into a sleeper
At this point, all I can say is, they’re getting better and better. I can’t say they’re bad anymore.
NICE :D
thanks fot putting me in the post (although i don’t show up in the list at the end)
there is however one non rear wheel drive opel i’d like to own. the 650hp 4wd xtrack rallycross astra.
Funny thing is that thing used a Ford engine. Bit embarassing for Opel.
What about the Opel Speedster and Speedster Turbo?
Dennis Said something about them. They are cool but didnt sell well
You know people say, the joke is not funny if you gotta explain it.
So Opels arent cool when you gotta say people why they are I guess…
My opinion on this is that its the typical klishees that gives Opel-Drivers a bad reputation, and back in the days they werent really high quality cars, but comparing them to nowadays opels its a big jump, I think the new opels are really underrated!
A guy I know got himself an Insignia and another one got a new astra, they are really great cars, you should check it yourself :)
