    i have had an Astra 1.9Cdti (150) Sri Estate as a company car for just over a year and have done just over 34K in it.

    Ive not had 1 problem and I drive it hard 80% of the time. I chose it over the similar price rivals completely on performance, and looks.

    Performance wise it is a good second faster to 60 than a top spec diesel focus (138bhp), but more importantly about 1.5 seconds faster in the 30-70mph "overtaking spot" (you can get 170bhp tdi Golf / Leon's but they are no faster and more expensive. And they don't come in estate form too)

    Just for info there are two versions of the 1.9ctdi. a 120bhp and a 150bhp. The way you can tell is the colour of the badge. The 120 version has a completely silver 1.9cdti badge, the 150bhp has the ti bit of the cdti in red.

    The car has 20k / 1 year service intervals, and not counting tyres (I drive aggressively) in the year ive had it, and the 30K ive done the only bill has been £140 for the 20K service.

    The seats could be more supportive, --longer to support the legs. And the cup holder is in a slightly annoying place (behind the gear stick, inbetween the front seat uprights) but apart from those niggles it is a very good-looking, good performing load lugger, and I will defiantly get another one if the competition does change when I have too.

    Sport switch(heavy's-up the steering and changes the throttle response)
    Makes it a little more fun, so a lot more fun than the rivals.

    One last point 6 of my colleagues hve the same car, and in a combined 230k miles we have done in a year. Only one of us has had anything go wrong. What went wrong was a EGR failure (exhaust gas recirculation). This is because he drives like a granny and so it got clogged up. If you rev it abit you flush all the carbon deposits out

    I LOVE MY CAR! Very good looking car and very quick! Driving it home after purchasing it was a laugh, the missus was bricking it! I've had it less than a month and it's the best car I have ever had! Extremely comfortable, all the controls are perfectly placed (not like in a lot of cars) and the kids love it! What more can I say, except, go and buy one!

    This is such a smart, fuel-efficient, sporty car. It's extremely functional, responsive and has excellent handling. It has an aggressive, yet sweet look and is sure to surprise drivers. Good looks and great performance (turbo diesel is my pick).
    Go with the turbo diesel CDi ('07) Opel/Holden/Vauxhall Astra. Pushing out 110kW power... It goes like an absolute dream, the acceleration is AMAZING. It shoots up hills and around corners without complaint.

    Bought the Vauxhall Astra 1.9 after test driving the following estate cars: Skoda Octavia, Ford Focus, Mazda 6, Renault Megane and VW Golf(hatchback). The Focus is a good drive but feels cheap inside. The VW Golf came close to the Astra but the performance on the diesel was a let down.

    I can't stress enough how good this car is. The build quality is excellent. The handling of the car seems more like a hatchback than an estate and you can thrash it and still get better performance and consider ...
