The VAUXHALL ASTRA (2012-16) 5DR SPORTS TOURER 1.6 16V 115 EU5 SRI AUTO6 is a practical five-door estate, offering more luggage space than the Astra hatchback while remaining a sensible-sized family car. In the UK used market, it sits among mainstream compact estates, competing with models such as the Ford Focus Estate and Volkswagen Golf Estate. That extra room makes the Astra Sports Tourer useful for school runs, holidays, shopping and commuting, and a good fit for couples or families who need flexible carrying space without moving to a larger SUV. The 1.6-litre petrol engine and automatic gearbox favour straightforward, relaxed driving over sporty pace, while the SRi trim gives it a more purposeful feel.
