2000 Vauxhall Astra Coupe Turbo review from UK and Ireland
"Wait for the Focus RS if you want real performance at 20,000ukp"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Severe turbo lag in damp weather.
General comments?
Poor performance for a 2.0 turbo and drinks as if it's packing 350bhp not 190.
Don't go for leather as the quality of the finish is suspect for a £1,000 extra. You would be better off getting the body kit fitted to spice up those dull looks.
