Product Overview

Opel Astra H TwinTop is an affordable compact convertible in production from 2006 to 2010. It was available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 1.6 to 2.0 liters. GM also sold the car a Chevrolet Astra, Holden Astra, and Vauxhall Astra in select markets.
The successor to the Astra G Cabrio, the TwinTop is a hardtop convertible. This allows it to offer the experience of both coupe and convertible depending on the wishes of the driver. Compared to other hardtop convertibles of similar sizes, the Astra G TwinTop is a lot more affordable, though one has to keep in mind that horrid build quality of GM's lowest marque.
