SUMMARY
A wonderful example of Vauxhall’s rightfully lauded but seldom seen, first-generation hot hatch.
DESCRIPTION
- In the early 1980s, the Astra GTE marked Vauxhall’s first foray in to the relatively new hot hatch segment which proved very successful
- Offering 115bhp from a revvy, naturally aspirated 1,796cc, four-cylinder with a 5-speed manual gearbox
- This Polar White Mk1 cosmetically benefits from a respray and meticulous babying to ensure its condition remains wonderful
- Showing no former keepers on the logbook, this is a fabulous opportunity to acquire the brilliantly nostalgic genesis of Vauxhall’s hot hatch
- Whilst the Golf GTi may have stolen the headlines in the 80s, the Astra delivered great value and great performance
- It's supplied with its original history file, the service book and a plethora of bills and invoices
- With so many GTEs falling into the wrong hands, this coveted car was certainly kept under lock and key and doesn't it show
