I saw the astra on the street for the first time today, an Opel version, very rare here.

They dont have the sedan in

America

only the hatchback, the 2008 model will be the first one in the

US

. I think the 4 door hatchback and the sedan are very nice. Unfortunately its coming out under Saturn, they have been getting better lately but is an arm of GM thats not known for great performance or interiors.

My family needs 2 new cars around the same time so one has to be cheap, 4-doors, decent quality, and fuel efficient.
