This Vauxhall Astra 1.4 Design Automatic is an absolute gem in the family hatchback world – a car that combines comfort, style, and effortless drivability in a way that makes every journey feel wonderfully relaxed and enjoyable. Whether you’re commuting, running errands, or heading out for a weekend trip, the Astra manages to feel both dependable and genuinely pleasant to spend time in.

The 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol engine paired with the smooth automatic gearbox is a real highlight. Gear changes are silky, making town driving a breeze and motorway cruising beautifully calm. The engine provides plenty of responsive power when you need it, but it remains quiet and refined when you simply want an easy, comfortable drive. Combined with well‑tuned suspension, the Astra glides over bumps and feels reassuring and composed on the road.

On the outside, the 2017 Astra has a clean, contemporary appearance with sleek lines and a confident stance. It looks modern without trying too hard, giving it real staying power in terms of style. The Design trim strikes the perfect balance between premium touches and everyday practicality.

Inside, the Astra truly shines. The cabin feels airy and thoughtfully designed, with supportive seats that stay comfortable even on longer journeys. The dashboard layout is clear and user‑friendly, and the materials feel solid and well put together. Controls are sensibly positioned, giving the car a reassuringly intuitive feel from the moment you get behind the wheel.
You also get a great selection of features in the Design trim, including a crisp infotainment screen, steering‑wheel‑mounted controls, Bluetooth connectivity, and high‑quality audio. Everything works seamlessly, making the car feel modern and well equipped without overwhelming you with unnecessary tech.

The Astra is impressively spacious for a hatchback. Rear passengers get good legroom, and the boot is generously sized, easily handling shopping trips, pushchairs, luggage, or weekend adventure gear. The split‑folding rear seats add flexibility when you need it, and there are plenty of useful storage areas around the cabin.
Running costs are reasonable too, with the efficient 1.4 engine delivering solid fuel economy and the automatic gearbox making everyday driving noticeably more relaxed.

Vauxhall’s strong reputation for reliability carries through with the Astra. It comes equipped with a range of safety features including stability control, multiple airbags, advanced braking systems, and reassuring handling characteristics. It’s a car you can trust to look after you and your passengers.

Established in 1989 LIGHTHOUSE CAR CENTRE is family run car trading company. Helpful without being pushy. We had a personalised registration on the car we were trading in..They took care of all the paperwork which made the sale and purchase very straightforward..Our daughter bought a car from them 16 years ago and had a good experience which is why we went back to them. We would definitely recommend them as you have a more personal interaction than with larger dealers.
