Posted 7th November, 2011 in Opel | Leave a comment
Benno Senner, president of Senner Tuning AG, and his team at their headquarters in Ingelheim am Rhein, have created a new styling package for the latest Opel Astra.
The styling program consists of a badgeless Steinmetz grille, lower front spoiler with integrated splitter, a sport roof spoiler, and side skirts with carbon-look inserts. The rear diffuser is finished in the same material and frames the twin oval Senner tailpipes. The wheels are Alutec ‘Ecstasy’ items, sized 8×19 inch, and wrapped in 235/35 Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta rubber. Ride height is taken care of thanks to a set of adjustable ‘Inox-line’ coilovers from KW Suspension.
Senner also offers some engine tuning upgrades, for example, an ECU remap, BMC air filter and stainless steel sports exhaust results in the 1.4 L turbocharged version enjoying a jump from 103 kW/140 hp and 200 Nm/148 lb-ft of torque to 121 kW/165 hp and 250 Nm/184 lb-ft. A power converter removes the delay that can sometimes occur in cars with a fly-by-wire accelerator.
Prices for the conversion start at € 11,900.
