Down to earth video, had the 2016 version and loved it then traded it in for a Crossland x which I must admit not too keen on visually but off to view the Griffin edition Astra today, can see another trade in happening😁 Again, an honest review, you didn't try to sell us the car, have us the pros and cons which I liked👍
This is by far the best review i have seen of this car however it doesnt acknowledge the 1.6 turbo petrol which is like... just way better and more fun than it has any right to be. I literally just traded in an m sport 228i for the 1.6 turbo petrol elite nav and as an all-round car I dont think there is anything better. Not even a Focus. And the best part is it is such an unassuming car, nobody expects the performance from the 1.6. The cringe red "turbo" badge is the only giveaway. Its not brain busting performance but for the price and the spec nothing gets close. My car even has these ridiculous cup holder things strapped to the front seat headrest mounts for people sat in the back 😂 they will be going. And seeing as they are no longer using nasty Italian gearboxes, the reliability you mention in the video should hopefully be legitimate.
Yep the engine data is wrong for the facelifted thats the prefacelift but it's now 1. 2 3 three cylinder turbo petrol with 130 or 145bhp then a 1.4 3 cylinder turbo petrol with 145bhp and lastly a 1.5 turbo diesel with 120bhp
@@EverythingCarsandMoreECAM Pre-facelift post 2017 yes, pre 2017 its correct. I have a 2016 estate with a 1.4 turbo producing 125bhp, there was also a 140bhp option as stated.

If this review is about the new facelifted model then you've all the wrong data on engines

It's built in UK, which is why this is my next car.
E E EDL vibes 😂

On the one hand the guy could be a massive racist.
On the other hand maybe the guy just wants to support local (ish) industry
@@Shnayblayor just maybe he supports his country lol, not everyone who is patriotic is racist🤦🏾♂️
The Astra and the Focus will always be FAR better than the golf or the A3😀
No just less expensive
@@theblackswordsmanguts less expensive and better
Astra, what next Fiesta or Focus, go on slum it a bit
