Vauxhall Astra (old)

Even though it was replaced in 2003, the old-shape Astra remains a common sight – but you painted a bleak picture. It was ranked 97th for ease of driving, 96th for braking and 92nd for performance. Ride and handling weren’t much better, either. The firm will be keen to point out how much higher up the chart the latest Astra finished.

MANUFACTURER VERDICT

A shocking performance. Vauxhalls are reasonably practical and frugal, but little else recommends them. Can the firm expect continuing strong sales if this is how drivers rate it?
