yeah batteries can do funny things on these astras
mine would randomly not start, - if it started ok in the morning, I could drive it for hours, park for 2 hours and it wouldnt go!! but if I didn't use it for 2 days there was no way it would go.
I checked voltage with engine running which proved the alternator was ok then checked voltage when full charged which seemed ok after 2 days the voltage had dropped, but in theory not enough to cause probs,
I did change the battery and not had any probs since
