New Astra Unveiled

[stiggles]

If i wasn't so lazy there could be a really funny joke about Jason Button here..

Who's he?

Interior looks OK, exterior looks OK. Nothing more to say about it, really.

Dull generic exterior. Hard shiny leather and hard shiny plastic interior.

Pass.

Current Astra is a great looking car; especially the Sport Hatch VXR's and SRi's

This is ok looking but seems to have been made from the Vauxhall parts bin; interiors like a D's but actually not as pretty.

The interior isn't too bland, but that centre console is stolen off something else - I just can't remember what.

And as for the general design - they have simply been stealing Renault's ideas. The current gen Astra has a bit of a sticking out bum, then all of a sudden they have made the new one very rounded and sleek lined with large C Pillars. Really - look at the two of them; the similarities are uncanny.

I love what they did with the door handle. Otherwise... so-so.

Caddilac CTS?

Looks very VW/Audi like to me.

It's most close relative is the Insignia, they're nearly the same.
