General Comments
I bought my car new back in 2001 and I am about to sell it after 3 years.



Great little car, we have done just over 50,000 miles in her and she is still going strong. The performance is good and she sounds nice when you open her up. Mine is the 1.8SRi and it came as standard with ABS, Cruise control, Air Con, 16" Alloys, sports seats and twin airbags and and Alarm.



The brakes are very good and she handles like she is on rails. After driving the 2.0 SRi I decided the performance differance did not warrant the big hike in insurance prices as there is not a lot in it. I have towed with this car all the way to the south of spain and back with no incidents and touch wood the only thing that has gone wrong with her is the Alarm played up but this was fixed under warranty.



The only downside I have it that due to the astra being a typical fleet car there are a lot of them on the second hand market and used prices suffer. On the other hand you will get A LOT of car for the £5500 you will pay for a second hand one of these!



Would buy one again tomorrow!!



Hope this helps
