The VAUXHALL ASTRA (2015-20) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.6 CDTI DPF 110 EU6 SE 6SPD is a practical five-door family hatchback, sitting in the UK’s popular small-car class alongside the Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf. It offers a sensible balance of space, comfort and running costs, rather than SUV height or city-car compactness. mycarcheck.com records are based on a modest sample: eight checks covering four different VINs, so figures are useful guideposts, not a definitive picture of every Astra. Within that data, average private-sale valuation is £8,800, average recorded mileage is 53,000 miles, and annual mileage averages 11,000 miles. The cars averaged fewer than one previous keeper. With useful economy, a relaxed drive and room for passengers and luggage, this diesel Astra suits commuters and families covering longer journeys. SE trim and an easy-to-live-with feel make it a credible rival to Focus and Golf hatchbacks. Check service history and condition before buying.
