they need to have the correct transponder for them to work right and to be worth anything as there are 2 diff ones unfortunatly and not interchangable.

plus they look wank!

Mk1 GTE? I never knew they had digital.

Only ever seen them on the Mk2s ( analogue was a very rare nco ) and there were at least 3 different transponders for them

Had a Mk2 GTE 16v and it was the most fun hot hatch I've had - the back end was quite twitchy like a 1.9 205 but once you were used to it was great fun. Storming engine. Had a new Saxo VTS at the same time and after about 70 the Astra would just drive away
