    was given this price on 1.4 petrol hatchback this evening. took it for a drive it was lovely, comfortable. Really like it. 57000 km on it. Is this a good price for the car? Dealer said this is as low as he would go? Also anybody have one of these cars and if so would you recomend?
    Thanks

    I take it this is the current model?

    As with any car, make sure you get a written warranty and that you trust the seller.

    Doesn't sound too bad.

    Timing belt and water pump should be due at around 70,000km if the old model Astra is anything to go by. If this is the case, make sure this work is done.

    For 500 euro more you can get the same car which is a year younger and has much less miles on the clock.;)

    just on the astra my oh picked up a 1.6 2005 astra, it's got 4,500 miles on it, genuine, she got it up north at wilsons auctions , all and all with taking it in it cost her 8,500.

    she loves it to drive so far, but it may be worth shopping about OP
