This Vauxhall Astra 1.6 CDTi BlueInjection Elite Nav 5dr Diesel Manual is a superbly specified example of a refined and efficient family hatchback, finished in sleek Mineral Black metallic. Combining low running costs with impressive technology and comfort, the Astra remains one of the most well-rounded choices in its class, offering strong performance alongside excellent practicality. Powered by the 1.6 CDTi BlueInjection diesel engine, this Astra produces around 136 PS and delivers an excellent blend of torque and economy. With 0–60 mph in approximately 9.0 seconds, it feels responsive and confident both in town and on the motorway. The 6-speed manual gearbox offers smooth, precise shifts, while fuel economy of up to around 72 mpg on the combined cycle keeps running costs impressively low. CO? emissions from approximately 103 g/km also make it a sensible option for road tax and business users alike. As an Elite Nav model, this Astra benefits from a high level of specification focused on comfort, technology and safety. The interior is trimmed in premium leather seat upholstery, complemented by sports-style front seats and four-way electrical lumbar adjustment for enhanced support on longer journeys. Both front seats and the outer rear seats are heated, along with a heated leather-covered steering wheel – a particularly desirable feature during colder months. Electronic dual-zone climate control ensures optimal comfort for both driver and passengers. Technology is a major highlight of this model. The Navi 900 IntelliLink system features a fully integrated European satellite navigation system displayed through an 8-inch colour touchscreen. The infotainment system includes AM/FM and DAB digital radio, Bluetooth audio streaming, Bluetooth mobile phone connectivity, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and USB connectivity, all delivered through a six-speaker sound system. Steering wheel-mounted controls and a multifunction trip computer add further convenience, while two rear USB charging points ensure passengers remain connected. Vauxhall OnStar is also included, providing features such as automatic crash response, a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot, smartphone app integration, stolen vehicle assistance and vehicle diagnostics, offering both reassurance and connectivity on the move. Externally, the Astra sits on stylish 17-inch multi-spoke alloy wheels, with chrome-effect upper window trim adding a premium touch. Rain-sensitive windscreen wipers, automatic lighting control with tunnel detection and an automatic anti-dazzle rear-view mirror enhance everyday usability. Front fog lights, LED daytime running lights, electrically adjustable, heated and folding door mirrors, and electrically operated front and rear windows further complete the strong exterior specification. Safety is comprehensive, with Electronic Stability Programme (ESP), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), six airbags, hill start assist, ISOFIX mounting points on the outer rear seats, tyre pressure monitoring and a remote control alarm system all included. Cruise control with speed limiter and an electric parking brake add to the Astra's ease of use on longer journeys. With its powerful yet highly efficient 1.6 CDTi diesel engine, generous Elite Nav specification and refined Mineral Black metallic finish, this Vauxhall Astra represents an excellent opportunity to own a well-equipped, economical and comfortable hatchback that is perfectly suited to both family life and daily commuting.
