1987 Vauxhall Astra

Automobiles

In 1987 a special one off design exercise based on a 1986 1.8 GTE was built by the Ellesmere Port factory to celebrate its 25th Silver Anniversary, the Astra GTE Quicksilver, first shown at the British International Motor Show. Bertone built 6,764 cabriolets from 1987 to 1993, which came as 1.6 and 2 liter GTEs, the latter available with a powered roof. The cabriolets of 1987 were Bertone cars, and a Silver Anniversary Quicksilver was built at Ellesmere Port.
