About
The Vauxhall Astra Mk5 was introduced in May 2004. It was initially available as only a 5-door hatchback, but a 5-door estate and 3-door Sport Hatch version followed later that year. There were 1.4-, 1.6- and 1.8-litre petrol engines available, and the higher-performance versions had 1.6- and 2.0-litre turbocharged engines. A 5-speed manual gearbox was standard, with a 4-speed automatic available as an option on 1.8-litre models. An ‘Easytronic’ manual/automatic transmission is also optionally available on 1.4- and 1.6-litre models. All models have front-wheel drive.
