All 8 Opel Astra Generations

The Astra L was the first Astra ever developed outside GM ownership - built under PSA/Stellantis, it became the first Astra offered as a hybrid.
The Astra K shrank 5cm on the outside and shed up to 200kg versus the J it replaced, yet Opel claimed it was roomier inside than ever.
Fresh off its 2012 launch, the new J-generation Astra VXR (sold as the OPC in mainland Europe) was named Best Sporting Car at the Scottish Car of the Year Awards that October.
This Astra was never meant to be called J — internally it was the ninth-letter "Astra I," renamed at the last minute so nobody would misread the badge as the number 1.
Down under, this Astra OPC wore a different badge entirely: Holden Special Vehicles sold it as the HSV VXR until late 2009.
The Astra H beat every other mainstream European car to digital radio — plus segment firsts in electronically controlled chassis (IDS+) and adaptive headlights that steer into corners.
The Astra G's coupe and cabrio weren't built by Opel at all; Bertone in Italy designed and assembled them.
South Africa's turbocharged Astra 200tS was quick enough to beat the contemporary BMW M3 in a quarter-mile drag race.
