Hey People,

I know how much you all hate the Astra, I see at least 40 of them an hour ;)

I thought that I would let you know that there is a new model coming out this September and just to let you all know that its fantastic, I saw it the other day and its very very very nice... quality is a lot better, honestly, I thought that the quality on the current model was not too good, but the new Asta is very nice.

I saw it in the pilot area just before and even the interior is niiiice... I can see this being a big hit even with all you OcUK skeptics ;)

I'm sure it has a lovely interior, and isn't quite up to the Focus in terms of chassis feel etc.

That will mean on here, it's the worst car ever invented by man, and we'll have 10 million threads about how people had to 'endure' one when their 1981 Escort was in for repair and they had one as a hire car.. ;)


:)

I guess if the Insignia is anything to go buy, it should be more then passable..

I think the sooner you simply accept you have very low standards and move on the happier you'll be, stop fighting against it and trying to justify it ;)

Cheeky :)

When every Journo seems to rate the Astra as pretty close to the focus and give it very similar ratings, including interior/build quality, with reasonably positive comments about the handling etc, perhaps you just need to re-align yourself with reality.. ;)

But then Aldi is rated postively amongst its competition as well, such as a Lidl, doesn't make them a good shop in the grand scheme of things nor somewhere I'd ever buy.

You're pretty stuck up aint you Fox :p I just can't take you seriously ever since that pic of you was posted.

Vauxhalls aren't the worst cars in the world, I'm sure some of you have been watching too much Top Gear you know...
 
How old is the Astra now, gotta be long overdue for a revamp.The new Astra had better be good, with the likes of the far eastern companies catching up, this this could be a make or break time for VX.Im not so convinced about the reviews, most were back in 04, when i was maybe against older Golfs and Focii.
