Astra Mk4 estate SNOG MARRY AVOID?


Recommended Posts

I really don't like these Astras as they just seem like a white goods kinda car that people who don't like cars buys because it'll do what they need it to do and has aircon.

Saying that if stuff like a full exhaust is 120 quid then I can see why folk run them as a transportation device.

Chester Exhaust Supplies (they have a few depots now all over the shop) or http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/mr.exhaust/m. ... ksid=p3686 is pretty good.

Think I paid £60 for a brand new backbox for my hatchback inc. fitting from a local garage so can't see a system for your's being much more if you shop round.

Looks like we won't need to put a 'zorst on it anymore as Dad has given us Mums old car, an 04 reg Ford Fusion semi auto.

 

Anybody want to buy a cheap tax and tested Astra estate?

I'll be looking to buy something either end of june or end of july*, how cheap is cheap.

 

 

 

*So if someone else wants it take the money.

Looking at £400ish, it has loads of tax and test on it, I'll have to check exactly how much though.

Well I'll be interested if you still have it then.

 

Presumably the MAP/MAF issue has been sorted?

I fitted a new front engine mount and the problem kinda just went away by itself. Very occasionally you can feel the engine shudder when pulling away but its not something that's bad enough to warrant fixing.

Sorry to hear that. What did you do to deserve that kind of punishment?

Is that the Durashift transmission ? That really is punishment,why they created such a awful gearbox I will never know;I have driven a Fiesta Durashift before,and it was by far the worst auto I had the misfortune of driving - even the owner said it was lousy !

 

The Ford Fusion however is a really great useful load lugger,without being a clumsy oaf to find a space to park it in.Good solid body,and durable interior,and a good engine as well.I would reccomend a Fusion to anyone :)
