No torque, no grip, massive under steer and gutless. I had a 2.0 NA Renault 182 that could demolish this pathetic car. Expensive options list and next to no standard equipment and no way to add extra due to a locked CANBUS, this is bad for the second hand market (OK there are workarounds but that's not the point). MPG is worse than my MX-5, BMW 318 CI and Clio cup ever were - under normal driving ;). Every time the car is left overnight the clutch will remain depressed, affecting the cruise control and gear change (clutch switch), I have to lift the pedal with my foot every time I release the handbrake. The anti roll back function is dangerous as it releases whenever it wishes, the auto handbrake is dangerous as it releases just by pressing the accelerator even when out of gear. A total mess and at worse a shambles. This car can't compare to an A3 or Golf, and the comment on a 1 Series - lol, I'd take a Kia over this, the Astra is RUBBISH. I'll probably never buy a Vauxhall again !

In 7 years of ownership, it's never let me down. It's had a few unusual faults, as well as the usual things due to wear and tear but hasn't really cost me any serious amount of money.

Again, because I don't travel far to work, the running and maintenance costs are even lower than before.

She drinks petrol, but that's just because of the way I drive her. When I drive economically, the car runs economically. As for parts and such, the costs are quite expensive, but reasonable when compared to other cars and makes.

Luckily I bought the car with an extended warranty as a number of things have gone wrong, however, considering the age and mileage I do not think the reliability has been terrible.
