The VAUXHALL ASTRA (2012-16) 5DR SPORTS TOURER 1.6 CDTI ECOFLEX DPF SS 136 EU6 TECH LINE 6SPD is a five-door estate: a family-sized alternative to an SUV, with useful extra load space over the Astra hatchback. It competes with familiar choices such as the Ford Focus Estate and Volkswagen Golf Estate. On mycarcheck.com, 64 checks covered 49 distinct VINs, giving a snapshot of interest. The average private-sale valuation was £3,800, while recorded mileage averaged 108,000 miles and annual use 9,000 miles. Checks showed about 1.8 previous keepers on average; these figures describe vehicles checked, not a guarantee for any individual car. The 136-horsepower diesel, six-speed gearbox and Ecoflex stop-start system suit commuting and family journeys; the versatile boot handles shopping, holidays and hobbies. Tech Line equipment adds comfort. This Astra estate is an alternative to rival family wagons, but check service history and condition carefully, particularly given the sample’s 108,000-mile average.
