  • CORRECTION In the video I said the combined fuel consumption is 49.6mpg or 4.7l/100km. I made a mistake here as I did not realise that the converter site that I used translated the US mpg instead of the imperial mpg to l/100km. The correct figures are 49.6mpg = 5.7l/100km.
    Hello everyone! As far as British cars go, most of them on my channel are on MINIs. I only have a couple of Vauxhalls on my channel, hence when I was able to film this UK-spec Astra a few months back, I went for it! This is an Astra with the 1.4 Turbo engine and 6-speed manual in SRi trim. Enjoy!
    Here's the list of Astra 5-door variants available for sale in the UK as of 6th December 2014. The list is arranged in order of the cheapest to the most expensive variant.

    I used to have a 62 plate model of this car. It was a silvery blue colour. Had a 2 L CDTI four-cylinder diesel engine. It was fast. I loved it. But sadly we had to get rid of it in 2018 and we got a 66 plate Insignia instead. Which was then replaced by a 2018 Kia Sportage at the end of January 2019.
