Vauxhall Astra 1.6 | SKI Manual | Full VXR Body Kit

The most powerful engine in the current range is worth it if you’re after a Vauxhall Astra with a bit more fizz.

The Vauxhall Astra is as impressive as ever with this 197bhp 1.6-liter petrol. You get strong performance in the same practical, handsome, and good-to-drive package that’s common across the rest of the range. It’s no VXR, but this model will be perfect for those who want a more powerful Astra without the lairy looks and uncomfortable ride that you have to put up with on a full-blooded hot hatch. You do sacrifice a little economy, with this model returning 46.3mpg and emissions of 141g/km, but if that’s a worry then go for one of the excellent diesel instead.
