Vauxhall Astra (06 on) - Review

Good quality cabin, strong diesel performance, easy to manoeuvre in tight spaces

Noisy at motorway speeds, not suited to long distances

Compact size, easy to park, diesel fuel economy, decent cabin quality

Not especially suited to motorways, noisy at higher speeds, petrol engine is best avoided

Neat handling, large cargo area, very frugal diesel engine

Basic equipment and budget interior finish
