Autotrader reckons £10,260 for a private sale, I'd get it for 10. I'd have been to look at it already if I could have traded mine against it, but I'll have to sell mine privately.

Personally, for what it is worth, I'd keep the Astra.

Run it till it stops running....which could be longer than you. :)

I paid over £21,000 for the grandland, that's going nowhere. The Astra is fine, just too small.

Initial response would be that given your age you’re far too young to own a Honda but hey, it looks tidy and straight, and the history appears to stack up. Two MOT’s in the same year easily explained by forward planning of travelling overseas for a few months etc. My brother-in-law has one and I don’t believe he’s had many issues with it but can ask him if need be.   :)

Don't know about the car, but this seems like a decent review (from a bloke who owns/drives a LOT of cars).

Sounds like just what you're after  :y

It's the kind of car that is owned by people who have absolutely no interest in cars.

More of an appliance than a car......does the job much like a fridge or washing machine.

But if it is merely used for shopping and taking the whippet for a walk that may be no bad thing. :)

If its what you want, why not.  Or possibly wait another month or 2 for those lower 2nd hand prices to filter through everywhere.

Can't say it does anything for me mind ;D, but its what you think of it what counts....


Actually, another consideration for those pointless semi jacked up shitboxes - when doggie gets a little older, its quite a way to jump up to get in the boot....

My mate has had one for a couple of years, went in it for the first time last week , wifey & I sat in the back amazing amount of legroom & very comfortable seats, his is the same year as that one with a lot more miles absolutely no problems with it at all & its always been looked after by a Honda dealership. Have seen a lot of them on the caravan clubs so obviously thought of as a good towcar. In all honesty that looks like a pretty good buy to me definitely worth taking a look at.

Wow! Thank you, all. Apart from it being unexciting and everyday, those comments are brilliant (for OOF)  ;D

I even got called 'too young'  :-*
