The VAUXHALL ASTRA (2012-16) 5DR HATCHBACK 2.0 CDTI DPF 165 EU5 SE AUTO6 is a five-door family hatchback, offering room and comfort beyond a city car while remaining easier to park than an SUV. It sits in the UK’s mainstream used-car market, competing with the Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 243 checks across 75 different VINs, giving a useful snapshot of this version. The average private-sale valuation is £4,200, with average recorded mileage of 193,000 and about 3.7 previous keepers. These figures describe checked cars, not a guarantee for any individual Astra, so condition and history matter. The 165 diesel engine and six-speed automatic make it a relaxed choice for longer commutes and motorway journeys, while five doors and boot space suit couples or small families. It offers stronger performance than many basic hatchbacks, though high mileage makes a careful service and vehicle-history check worthwhile before buying.
