2000 Vauxhall Astra Coupe Edition review from UK and Ireland
"Nice looks, niggling faults..."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Sticking clutch pedal.
Rattle from the dashboard (resolved by the dealer, but now the centre console is creaking!!)
General comments?
Not too sure about this car yet. It looks great and handles well, but the engine seems a bit sluggish. Perhaps it will loosen up a bit more with more mileage.
Not happy about the niggling rattles - first rattle was resolved (traces of lubricating oil are still visible on the INSIDE of the instrument panel) but it has now been replaced by creaking on the centre console...
