My brother told me last weekend that he actually hates the civic and the interior, he thinks the dash is one big mess of dials of differnet shapes and sizes. In fact at least four of my friends dont like the civic at all they think its quite ugly but I still bought one.

I really like the look of the Astra but for me the boot is too small otherwise I would definately have considered one as my next car.

Happy Choosing

I was just interested what people thought and what their past experiences were. I will buy whatever takes my fancy. At the moment, its the astra! Tommorrow no doubt it will be the type s! hehe

Before the civic I had an Astra Bertone Coupe 2.2 for the last 3 years which I never had one problem with. When I was looking for a new car I had an extended test drive in a new Astra 1.9 150 BHP Sportshatch. IMO I thought the Astra was better to drive (much better suspension) but the interior looks of the Civic won the day. Also the Astra does suffer from heavy deprecation, but must admit that I got a great PX for it against the Civic
