2006 Holden Astra CDX review from Australia and New Zealand
"The best small/medium car around"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing as yet.
General comments?
This is one of the best cars I have ever owned. The car has plenty of pick up which I thought it would not because of its heavier weight, but it goes along nicely. The on board computer takes a bit to get used to, but once you master it is amazing the things it will tell you. The one touch indicators also take a bit to get used to. The Astra is the best value for money compared to the competition it has space and handling. The fuel economy is great as well.
