What is the difference between a opel and a vauxhall?

they are cars that look the same but have the same body and styling|||i have to say andy is spot on here in australia they also have holden name|||Hi, In the UK, all cars of this type (Corsa, Astra, Vectra, Insignia etc.) are badged as Vauxhall.


In the EEC (Including Southern Ireland) they are badged as Opel, but they could be manufactured in virtually any country that GM has a factory, thus you have Vectras (UK Specification) made in Germany by Opel, and Australian Holdens all badged up as Vauxhall!


A quick clue is to look under the bonnet at the identity plate, this will usually give the manufacturer and country of origin.


Hope this helps.|||Hello





They are the same.


Used to be that the Opel were sold in Germany and the Vauxhalls in Britain.
