Vauxhall/Opel Astra Coupe concept to premier in Paris

Vauxhall/Opel will reveal a concept car - at the Paris motor show in October - that will hint heavily at the fothcoming coming Astra Sport Hatch.

Vauxhall said it is inspired by the line 'And the speed was pure beauty,' from Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach. The words are laser-etched into the upholstery on the front seats.

The Astra Coupe will go on sale mid-2011.
