Hi guys
I'm looking to buy a Vauxhall Astra SXi on a 2010 plate and have found some good examples ont he following sites:
http://www.carsite.co.uk/used-car/vauxhall/astra
http://www.vcars.co.uk/used-cars/used-vauxhall-astra.php
http://www.desperateseller.co.uk/cars-for-sale/vauxhall/astra
However, I've read several reviews (eg: http://www.rac.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?12851-Vauxhall-Astra-Handbrake-Problems) and it appears that there is a significant problems with the handbrake system on these models. It appears that the brake struggles to hold on an incline - which is dangerous for obvious reasons! i have a small family and do not wish to put them at unnecessary risk.
Can I ask if anyone here has had any similar problems with this model?
Best regards
Rick
