Since selling my Saab I have been carless so now my motoring is done via the fastest cars in the world.......Rental cars!!
The first car I hired this year was an Astra 1.4
It was pretty much fully loaded coming with air con, cruise, decent stereo that you can plug an mp3 player into.
My first gripe initially was getting used to the fiddlt electronic hand/parking brake.
Once I got used to it I found the Astra drove pretty well and isnt bad to just cruise around in.
After driving it.....I can't get excited by it it was lacking something.
The 1.4 engine, ok to cruise with and great to press on with, just runs out of puff approaching triple figures.
But stick it on motorwat cruising speed and enjoy the ride.
Yes it's a fine drive, equipped well, feels great to be in and well screwed together but that was just it.
It's a bit of a lacklustre review!! because I can't think of anything to get excited about.
