2000 Holden Astra CD review from Australia and New Zealand
"It just doesn't get any better than this for a bargain price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There have been no problems with the running of the car.
However the front seats and passenger/driver doors sometimes creak for no reason during turns. This problem seems to mysteriously disappear at times.
General comments?
The car is relatively lively to drive.
At speed it is a dream with hardly any harshness or vibrations, just road and wind noises.
The sound system is great.
Very economical, a plus for high petrol prices.
