My own advise for you is no matter how tempted you are try to go for the manual transmission of this car, my cousin has the the 1999 opel zafira for five years now, the suspension is good I must say engine fairly ok, mechanic can easily understand the car, and it's frugal with gas

Opel is a german car and not in the luxury segment, it's American sibling is the chevrolet and chevy isn't luxury either and my brother the car is economical it's got a fairly eco boost engine my cousin's opel zafira fitted with a 1.8l liter engine(1999) has driven from Benin to owerri and back to Benin on less than 40liters how else can a car be more economical.
