Just seen this on the news, they are anticipating one of the two uk plants to close.

So the next Vauxhall Astra will become a Peugeot 308... hahaha

It's a strange one, I don't know if that's better or worse for Vauxhall with regards to quality of late. Saying that best car I ever had was my daily 406 75k I did with 80k on it and didn't ask for anything. the Ellesmere Port plant is only half hour ish from me, been there a long time. I once had a invite to tour around the plant when it was shut for a day, they wanted my car to put on display. loads of old vauxhalls inside with no miles on them, I remember loads of huge skips full of v6 engines too, thousands of them just chucked in the skip, interesting having a good mooch about.

I think the stamps was made in china

Ive not really been a fan of vauxhalls but i think the build quality is better than Peugeot.
