1999 Vauxhall Astra Club review from UK and Ireland
"Stylish reliable family motoring."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New ignition barrel, due to door buzzer not going off when taking key out of the ignition. £60 from main dealer, changed it myself.
New thermostat. Not an easy job to change thermostat, due to taking cam belt pulley off to gain access. I changed cam belt kit & water pump whilst I was on.
Front brake pads.
General comments?
Nice build quality.
Decent looking car.
Average mpg (35mpg), mixed driving.
Good road holding & braking.
A well established 1.6 8v engine.
