The slow Astra sales are a little worrying, though. I think the main buyers are European ex-pats who know how popular the car is in Europe.
My mother-in-law was looking at one, and she wondered why the price was so high -- "It's just a small stupid car, why so much?" were her words I believe...
A co-worker was also looking at one, and wouldn't even look twice because of the price.
I do have a British friend who bought one -- he loves it.  He says they beat the crap out of the Focus in Europe... |
I have seen several Astra's out on the rode here in MSP (where I'm spending this summer). They look like fantastic cars, unfortunately, people are going to take some time to adjust to seeing Saturn as a VW competitor.
