The VAUXHALL ASTRA (2004-11) 5DR ESTATE 1.9 CDTI 150 SRI is a practical family estate, combining the familiar Astra’s compact-car feel with extra room for passengers and luggage. In the UK used-car market, it sits among affordable, mainstream load-luggers, offering more carrying space than an equivalent hatchback without the size and cost of an SUV. Mycarcheck.com recorded 190 checks across 112 distinct VINs, giving a useful snapshot of interest in this older model. The observed average private-sale value is £1,200, with average recorded mileage of 140,000 miles and annual mileage of 7,000; cars had about 4.3 previous keepers on average. These figures describe checked vehicles, not a guarantee for any individual car. Its 150hp diesel suits motorway commuters and loaded family trips, while the roomy estate also appeals to practical buyers. Compared with the Ford Focus estate, the Astra offers value and versatile space; check service history and condition carefully.
