Welcome to Torque Astra!
Working on behalf of Vauxhall, Ghost, that’s us, have launched this blog to convey our passion for all things Astra, past and present! We’re hoping to create a place where people can come together and chat about all things Astra (obviously!) and anything else motor related that you’d like to talk about.
To be fair we draw the line at mobility scooters. Sorry Granddad! We’ll be posting exclusive articles, videos and images of the all-new Astra over the following months and if there’s anything you’d like to share with us and the rest of the Astra community. Please get in touch and do comment!
The waiting is over!
The all new Astra has launched nationwide and is already on a forecourt near you.
Here at Torque Astra, we were recently invited to test drive the car at the Millbrook proving ground and really do recommend you give it a go for yourself.
If you would like help finding your nearest dealer or arranging a test drive, please contact us and we'll assist you in any way we can.
Once you’ve driven the car, why not write a review?
We’ll be publishing your thoughts in the Astra Reviews section on this site, so be sure to send us an email or keep visiting Torque Astra to read the latest views and news.
Happy motoring from the Ghost team!
