Front brakes are extremely loud and leave a greasy black residue around the alloy wheels.
Seats lack lumbar support and tend to be hard.
This car is a beautiful piece of art. The European design sets it a stage above the rest.
For a first car it has provided me with a high level of safety, comfortability and performance.
The stereo system is unbelievable.
When applying clutch on changing gears, the engine tends to continue on revving, which took a bit of getting used to.
It performs extremely well on highways and unsealed roads, leaking no dust and using just over 1/4 a tank to complete 250km's.
Hello everyone
I also have an Holden (Opel) Astra and I have changed many parts with I think made an huge difference in performance in the car. I have change the air filter to K&N in box air filter with has given the car much more power. If you ar thinking about giving your astra an Pod filter I strongly suggest that isn't an good idea because Pod filter collects the warm air.
