Review
Attractive company car tax bills and big discounts for private buyers are the two main pulls of the Vauxhall Astra. If you’re looking to inject a little excitement to your daily commute, the Ford Focus is a better bet, but the Astra is still a fair choice if you just want a down-to-earth family hatchback.

Our favourite trim brings tinted rear windows, LED headlights and the more supportive Sports seats we talked about in the interior section. You also get larger 17in alloy wheels, smart interior trim and automatic emergency braking.
