At least the bump has resulted in it looking like an Omega instead of an Astra G  ::)  ::)  ::)

Indeed, the facelift front is pig ugly, with (later) Rover 800 style massive bumpers...

Someone at work likened my Mig to an Astra  :( Then I clipped him! :y :D

Saying that someone once compared their dads Belmont to my Senator! i wasn't impressed!

The only similarity is 4 wheels i told him!! ;D

When you're inside it, you can't see it, but you have to admit, the front of the facelift is pretty ugly...

I think the facelift is a much better looking car to be honest.

Possibly from the rear - though I reckon the facelift really does need the lip spoiler on boot. I guess the interior centre console is less cluttered as well.

But overall, I prefer the prefacelift for styling.  Everyone will have an opinion on it, none are right, none are wrong :y

I think the worse thing with the facelift interior is the quality of the finish.  It just wear so badly  :'(
