The New Vauxhall Astra GTC: a Lifetime Warranty

By Harvey Watts


Vauxhall is a British car company that has been around for a long time. They are constantly working to improve their cars and attract new buyers. To that goal they have recently introduced a new car. That is the Vauxhall Astra GTC.

This is a 3 door car that comes in 4 different engines sizes. There are two gasoline engines that are 1.4 liters. One has 117bhp, and the other is a 137bhp engine. You could also choose a 2.0 liter diesel that will give you 160hbp. The last choice is a 1.6 liter turbo. Vauxhall says that this engine will produce 175hbp and has a top speed of 132 mph.

This car is comparable to the Renault Megane Coupe or the VW Scirocco. The Astra GTC has the same kind of chassis that the hatch and estate versions do. It also has a time tested suspension to give you a good ride.

But this car has something that no other car on the market has. That is a lifetime warranty. Vauxhall is the first car dealer to offer a lifetime warranty on their cars. Kia is the closest competitor and their warranty is only 7 years.

There are a few guidelines that a person has to follow to keep the lifetime warranty. One is that the owners have to bring the car into one of the many Vauxhall dealerships for a yearly checkup. This is just like the checkup that you would get at your doctor's office. It just makes sure that everything on the car is working right.

While the yearly check is mandatory, it is also free. The dealership will check out everything. That means that all your electrical systems, as well as your brake system. The Vauxhall dealerships will also check out your body to make sure that everything is OK. There are a few restrictions on the warranty on the Astra GTC. One is that it doesn't cover any wear and tear on the car. It is also not transferable to any other owner. It is only good for the original owner. The warranty ends at 100,000 miles.

The warranty also excludes used Vauxhalls. That may change in the future. Otherwise you will just have to wait until you buy a new Astra GTC or other new Vauxhall.

This new lifetime warranty that Vauxhall dealerships are offering on all new cars has set a new bar for the car world. All other car manufacturers are going to have to step it up to to match what Vauxhall is offering.

If you have been wanting a Vauxhall this is the time to do it. Go to a dealership and try out the new Astra GTC and get more information on their lifetime warranty.
