Hello dear talker, I am new to the forum because I am dissatisfied with my current situation. my little agila I have now driven 55 000 km without any repair. he is well maintained check book, because I use the alleged advantage of the lifelong guarantee. however, that also means every year to see through to the opera workshop. and that was now already in March 2015. have paid for the usual view 250 euro and I thought with that again I am well cared for and always on the safe side. now my great disappointment, last week there was a big bang and on the road lay the exhaust pipe to the end silencer. my opera workshop however showed itself calm and meant that this can happen, something rusty from the inside through. but where remains for me the safety when I am on track and feel all around safe because my car is experiencing a constant maintenance. well every case I was installed a new end silencer, for a total cost of 245 eur o. now I look at the calculation and see that this is not even an original end muffler from opel. so far I thought that opel in his workshop at least always used original components? outside I could have got one for 79 euro. it is worth it now even the guarantee to let run still further, i.e. continue the annual inspection at opel or do not come better to make the repairs at opel at all and in future to go to a free workshop? maybe you can give me some tips.

Moin together, my daughter is just buying her first car. On the dealer tour (Munich area) she stumbled over this offer. According to (free) trader allegedly a retired car from 1st hand (which is why the supposedly few KM). I am always skeptical about this, as today the tachos are manipulated. After all, with only one previous owner it is not to be feared that of the 35,600 km the first 30,000 were driven by the first owner in 2 years and the rest in the following 9 years (unless he has not been driven for years before the sale, which can quite happen with old people). “Rentnerauto” is probably the standard reason for old cars with little KM. I haven’t seen the car myself, but daughters rave of a super well-kept condition on the outside as well as on the inside. She has already tried it: “runs great”. She definitely wants to have a workshop look over it before a purchase. Winter tyres would be d at the price also go 300 €. Would the price be so ok? If it goes down so quickly in the price, it smells suspiciously like shopkeepers. Well, the Agila is not exactly a beauty, for my feeling. What do you think, can you buy it reasonably unconcerned? Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about the Agila and its strengths and weaknesses. What is special to pay attention to? What does it like to break? Does the engine type have known problems? Fuel consumption appropriate? Would really be grateful, who PS: According to the description he should have aluminium rims. I only see plastic wheel caps on the pictures, you too?. Maybe the winter bikes are already mounted (or still!!!).

Hello guys, I drove the Opel Karl test last week and ordered it right away :-). Is there any more here that are currently waiting for their Karl? My dealer gave me the KW39 as delivery date, but usually he should be there 2 weeks earlier – let’s see? glg, Michael

We ordered our KARL on Wednesday. Full cabin (was manageable) and at a good price incl. 3 years warranty extension. Are very curious, because one buys the car so to speak blind. The engine should run quite cultivated and in the end it should look like on the only brochure/poster (red with 16er aluminium wheels, chrome clips on Neblers etc.). According to our FOH it will probably be nothing before the end of August. Hope, the Koreans make limp

Hello everyone… My Opel has been making quite mysterious noises at undertouring speeds for about 3 months now, it was such a quiet flickering (especially if it wasn’t warm yet). I had it checked by the contract workshop and a friend. Diagnosis: 80% gear damage (possibly even additional clutch). Can that be? After 4 years? I find more than outrageous from Opel… What does a new gearbox cost and can you not do something about it? S before it actually does not pay a fortune after 4 years.. Many thanks and greetings Katja
