The UK Market
UK imports began in January 1995 when it was one of two cars (the other being the Nexia) in the first British Daewoo range.
The Nexia is based on the Astra Mk2 and the Espero is based on the Cavalier Mk2 (GM's J-Type Platform). It sold well in the UK, thanks to its competitive asking price, spacious interior, luggage compartment, impressive equipment levels and the comprehensive aftersales package.
Despite the fact the Espero also featured couple of drawbacks as outdated interior design backing to the 80-s, mediocre fuel economy and its body fairly prone to corrosion it still maintained popularity among price-conscious drivers.
The Espero was launched just months before the Vauxhall Cavalier (Opel Vectra A) was discontinued and the Vauxhall Vectra (Opel Vectra B), the Cavalier's replacement, was introduced.

Famous quotes containing the word market:
“... married women work and neglect their children because the duties of the homemaker become so depreciated that women feel compelled to take a job in order to hold the respect of the community. It is one thing if women work, as many of them must, to help support the family. It is quite another thing—it is destructive of woman’s freedom—if society forces her out of the home and into the labor market in order that she may respect herself and gain the respect of others.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
