Is a used Vauxhall Astra hatchback reliable?
Based on our car brand data, we have concerns about the reliability of the Vauxhall Astra, although we reserve full judgement until it appears as a model in our What Car? Reliability Survey.
The older 2015-2022 version of the Astra did appear in our survey, and it finished a poor 2oth out of 25 cars in the family car class with an overall score of 86.5%.
In our most recent survey, Vauxhall ranked 29th out of 31 manufacturers, with a poor reliability rating 0f 84.7%. It only proved more reliable than Alfa Romeo and MG, with brands like Ford, Honda and Toyota ranking higher.
With this in mind, the Astra should be less reliable than cars like the Ford Focus, Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla.
