I have loved my 06 plate, 1.7 cdti sxi since i bought it, it had a mere 5k miles on the clock. Then suddenly, yesterday, my turbo blew...a very expensive repair for a car that has only just done 22k miles. Am appalled at the turbo going on car vehicle with such low mileage...And I am no girl racer in it either...Has anyone else had the same happen to them? or am i just the unlucky one...not leaning towards any recommendation for this car now!!!
Would love to know if this is normal

Reliable and economical; mine gives around 50mpg. The interior is comfortable and practical but lacks refinement. A nice, economical car but better as an economical run about than for high mileage driving (which is what I do).

Vauxhall Astra 1998 1686cc diesel LS td Vauxhall engine- in general I like my car a lot I don ' t mind that it is slow and has a dull interior it reminds me of the Alfa sud a little on the outside (loved them) - my car has 136,000 miles on clock I get 49 average to gallon by turning down pump adjustment (using BP Ultimate diesel) I want to keep mine as long as it runs- that ' s just me this car might not be to everyone ' s taste.
