Holden Astra FAQs
Holden Astra 2000: Should the timing belt be replaced?
Have the timing belt changed, it is well beyond the time it should have been changed even though it has only done 55,000 km. Have a mechanic check the oil pressure at idle, it could be that the oil and oil filter require changing.

Holden Astra 2000: What is causing the engine to stall?
It is likely to be an engine sensor misbehaving intermittently. Check the crank angle sensor and its connections, or take it to a mechanic and have him run a diagnostic check on it.

Can you convert me?
FOR a stylish drive there's the VW Beetle cabriolet and the Mini cabriolet. Both look smart and are fun to drive, and you will be able to get them for about $40,000. Another way to go is to buy a coupe/convertible -- one that has a folding metal roof instead of a soft-top. That way you get the security and refinement of a coupe and the fun of a convertible. The VW Eos is a good one, as is the Holden Astra Twin-Top, but they will set you back about $50,000. For a sportier ride there is the Mazda MX-5 coupe/convertible, which is more fun but is only a two-seater. All those cars will be reliable and all represent good value.
