Description
This fourth generation Vauxhall Astra petrol Z22SE 2. 2 Bertone Convertible is a rare 1 owner car with only 21, 408 warranted miles from new, which is finished in a very desirable silver and black colour combination and is equipped with a smooth Automatic 4-speed transmission.
The car has been meticulously maintained for the last 22 years by its original owners who purchased the car new on the 31st of October 2002 and the only reason for the sale on their behalf is due to a lack of use; the car has only been driven 100 miles in the last couple of years. It is currently the lowest mileage example on the market, with a full MOT and service history from new having always been maintained by Vauxhall specialists:
October 2005 - 3, 976 miles
October 2006 - 5, 221 miles
October 2007 - 7, 020 miles
October 2008 - 8, 355 miles
October 2009 - 9, 802 miles
October 2010 - 10, 627 miles
October 2011 - 12, 203 miles
October 2012 - 13, 418 miles
October 2013 - 14, 680 miles
October 2014 - 16, 289 miles
October 2015 - 17, 890 miles
October 2016 - 19, 558 miles
October 2017 - 20, 586 miles
October 2018 - 20, 970 miles
October 2019 - 21, 183 miles
March 2021 - 21, 260 miles
March 2022 - 21, 323 miles
Importantly, the Bertone-styled Astra presents in great overall condition, with no rust to be found anywhere on the car and only a couple of age-related marks. Moreover, the electric roof is in full-working order and I have videos of the mechanism for anyone who would like to see them. Inside, the interior presents in almost as-new condition with no rips or tears and the back seats have only ever been sat on a handful of times over the years so are as new. All electrics work as they should too.
Mechanically, the uprated 2. 2 Litre 16v engine (with an output of 147bhp) runs and drives very well having been assessed and driven around the block with no faults on the dashboard or any rattling from the timing chain. The car also has a fresh 12 months MOT which expires on the 2nd October 2025 with no advisories, so is ready to be enjoyed!
The car comes with a full history file, a spare key and there are over 80 more detailed photographs for anyone who would like to see them, so please feel free to get in touch! A lot of car for the money considering it was one of the last cars styled by Bertone…
