Description

Welcome to the listing for this fantastic Vauxhall Astra 1.6 Elite. If you are looking for an affordable, highly-specified family car or a reliable daily driver, this is an excellent choice. It has covered just 99,100 miles from new which is exceptionally low for a 2008 model (roughly half the average you would usually expect to find!). It drives beautifully, is fully HPI clear, and comes with a brand new 12-month MOT, making it completely ready to drive away today. Engine: 1.6L Petrol 16v VVT (113 BHP) - great balance of performance and fuel economy Emissions: Euro 4 (Fully ULEZ and Clean Air Zone Compliant - no daily charges) MOT: Full 12 Months Service History: Well-maintained with 9 stamps present in the service book Keys: 1 x key Full V5 logbook present Being the top-of-the-range Elite trim, this car punches well above its price tag for comfort: Full black leather interior Heated front seats (perfect working order for winter) Automatic headlights and rain-sensing wipers Digital climate control with air conditioning All-around electric windows and electric door mirrors 16" Elite factory alloy wheels I believe in total transparency so you can view the car with complete confidence. Mechanically, the car starts on the button, pulls smoothly through all gears, and handles beautifully. As a completely honest 18-year-old vehicle, it does have a few normal, age-related cosmetic and mechanical notes, which have been fully factored into the fair asking price: Cosmetics: The metallic silver paintwork looks great overall, but please expect some standard stone chips on the bonnet, minor bumper scuffs, and a couple of small parking dents from supermarket car parks. Tyres: All four tyres are fully legal with a healthy 3.5mm of tread remaining. The recent MOT noted that they are starting to show minor perishing due to age, but they still have plenty of miles left in them. Under the Bonnet: The MOT also picked up a minor oil leak. This is incredibly common for Vauxhalls of this era and it does not impact the excellent way the car drives or performs. This is a genuine, low-mileage, top-spec hatchback that has just been fully valeted inside and out. It is ready to provide its next owner with many miles of comfortable, trouble-free motoring.
