We are big fans of the Vauxhall Astra - which has has been around in its various forms since 1979. This model arrived in 2009 and it immediately impressed with a cabin capable of rivaling Volkswagen's class-leading Golf for fit and finish. With secure handling and decent refinement, the driving experience comes close to rivaling that of the Ford Focus.
A wide range of engine and trim levels are available, and entry level cars can be bought for relatively cheaply. You'll need to spend a few thousand pounds more than that if you want any luxury. We would recommend the 1.4-litre petrol turbo. The ecoFLEX versions will keep your costs down if you're a business user, thanks to low fuel consumption and tax-friendly emissions.
