Just A Bit Of Fun

...Saw this photo of my F-i-L in a car. Don't know the era, but guess 80s or 90s.

He can't remember what car it was and I can't identify it. I think it's a Nissan from looking at it, but he has never owned one. It may, just may, have been a courtesy car.

Can you identify the car?

Unfortunately no points for your answer.. Car in pics has door window frames that are part of the pressing of door skin. Cav Mk2s had frames that were seperate parts riveted/screwed to the main door structure.

Ok, but it was definitely a Vauxhall Blue.
And then I noticed the prominent scuttle grill...

Hence, MK2 2 Astra.
