Vauxhall Astra Coupe 2.0i 16v Turbo 2d (2001/Y) Owner Review

Economy
Value
A lot of car for the money, couldn't find another car with the same performance, looks and spare parts availability for the money.
Costs
Vauxhall parts so common/cheaper but running can be costly with thirst for fuel.

On the road
Driving
Puts a smile on my face and can be used as everyday car or just for the weekend.
Performance
Puts many other cars to shame, no more trouble from Type R's and Clio 182's for me!

Living with it
Reliability
So far so good, not had her long though so we'll see.
Image
Possibly underrated, pretty rare compared to a lot of cars which is nice.
Comfort
Road noise is pretty obtrusive due to low profile tyres and car being lower, seats are supportive though, love my heated leather.

Security and Service
Security
Has alarm, immobiliser and deadlocks as standard, may be worth investing in a better alarm some time though.
Service
Had no dealings so far with manufacturer.
