    Good Points: The Vauxhall Astra 1.6 16v Sport has great handling, surprising acceleration. No idea what the top end speed is as had it to 120mph and still had about half the throttle to go. Not that expensive to maintain either i.e water pump and cam belt incl. rollers fully fitted @ a cost of £250-300 depending on where you go. Plenty of boot space.


    Bad Points: The back seats have OK leg room but can be difficult for larger people getting in and out.


    General comments: If you find that you battery light has started to come on and you are losing power steering when ever this light is on, its time for a new alternator, as the power steering pump is hydraulic but runs off a electric pump this will cost around £180 just for a new alternator but can be fitted your self with little effort.

    If you can hear a grinding sound as well coming from under or around the alternator this is more then likely your water pump going and would recommend that you take it straight to a mechanic as this could cost you over £1200 to correct if the cam belt slips off the water pump.
