A detailed review of the 8th generation Vauxhall Astra including a comprehensive overview of the interior and storage space. I drove it on city, rural and 70mph roads. I reset the trip computer to see what the economy is like and I tested the driver assistance systems. This particular car was the 1.2 130PS Ultimate model with the 8 speed automatic gearbox.
