Got the Astra last week.
1.9 cdti 150 bhp version
First thing i done was ordered the green eco tuning box.got one 2nd hand off ebay 5 months old for 165 quid
takes it from 150bhp - 205bhp and 320nm torque - 422nm.
How accurate the figures are i dont know.but fuck me it shifts now lol.
Still on the standard setting will tweak it up a tad once im bored
oh and 45mpg lol

Very good cars, we always have a few on as demos.. Never driven one with a tuning box but even in standard trim there not bad.
Best thing you can do is take the vxl badge of the back, improves the back of them in a big way..

Yeah get the badge off and a DTUK Green box on it.
With a box they are absolute beasts.
