VAUXHALL ASTRA (2012-16) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.7 CDTI DPF 110 EU5 SRI 6SPD
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The VAUXHALL ASTRA (2012-16) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.7 CDTI DPF 110 EU5 SRI 6SPD is a five-door family hatchback in one of Britain’s most popular used-car classes. Its spacious cabin, useful boot and diesel engine make it a practical option for families and commuters, particularly those covering regular longer journeys.
Against Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf rivals, the Astra is a straightforward, comfortable all-rounder, with SRi styling adding a sportier edge and a six-speed gearbox helping relaxed cruising. It suits buyers wanting space and diesel range rather than a tiny city car, though older diesel examples deserve careful checks of service records and emissions equipment, especially when used mainly for short trips.
