The VAUXHALL ASTRA (2009-14) 5DR SPORTS TOURER 1.4 T 16V 140 EXCLUSIV 6SPD is a five-door compact estate, known as a Sports Tourer, offering more luggage space than the Astra hatchback without moving into large-car territory. It sits in the mainstream family-car market, where it competes with estate versions of the Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 11 look-ups covering nine different VINs, so this is a modest sample rather than a broad market survey. Within those checks, average private-sale value was £2,100, average recorded mileage 110,000 miles and average annual mileage 7,000; cars had around 3.6 previous keepers. It suits families and commuters needing boot space and comfort. The 1.4-litre turbo petrol engine and six-speed gearbox provide flexible driving, while Exclusiv trim adds appeal. More versatile than a hatchback, it rivals the Focus and Golf estate models. Check service history and condition as age and mileage vary.
