2000 Vauxhall Astra Van Envoy review from UK and Ireland
"Economical and quick (for a diesel)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not a lot, the diesel pump is cutting out for no reason and the injectors are about to be replaced under warranty.
General comments?
It's a van, but the same as the estate, it's very quick for a diesel and has miffed many a boy racer in XR2 and 3s, GTEs etc. Handling is spot on and one of the best dealers I've come across (Lane House Bridport).
Equipment is high for a van too - remote locking, rev counter etc.
Rlectronic throttle is very weird, but you get used to it and VERY economical: 50-60mpg average (no bull).
