Nice pictures.
The sky is blown out in most of the pics though.

Out of curiosity, why the Opel emblem on the steering wheel?

Steering wheel could've been straight at least.

Wow, that second one is awesome! Great set altogether but wow--great work on the second!

I think that the "blown out" skies work really well here with this car and style of editing.

It's all General Motors. So, any manufacturer wanting it. I'm sure if you looked hard enough you'd find some fool somewhere who's badged it as a Chevy. lol

You know i wouldn't be surprised at all if i saw that lol, I know they are all owned by GM. I love how they advertise the Saturn version as "European styling"... umm yeah it was designed and made in Europe lol

Like the special Badge. #3 my choice, really beautifull. Car Magazine UK give it a great rating. It looks like a fantastic ride.

I think the shots look great.

The steering wheel slightly not straight is driving me crazy, tough (no pun intended).

Well, the Astra is Known as Vauxhall (UK), Opel (Continental Europe), Holden (Australia), Saturn (US)... and yes, Chevy (South America, with the Golden Tie and all)) where is known as the Vectra GT (just Vectra for the 4-door saloon).

Never knew they had German number plates in Australia. Oh well, one should never be too old to learn something new. ;)
