Real-world appeal, value for money and top tech were just some of the key attributes praised by judges at this year's Auto Express New Car Awards when they named the Vauxhall Astra their Compact Family Car of the Year.

Vauxhall vehicles have always had a reputation for reliability, although a recent study undertaken by those engineering experts over in Germany has confirmed it: Vauxhall cars are among the most reliable vehicles on the market.

You’d be hard pressed to drive along any stretch of road without catching a glimpse of a Vauxhall nowadays, and the figures don’t lie – two of the top 10 selling brand new models last year were Vauxhalls, with the Corsa and the Mokka chalking up 92,077 and 45,399 sales respectively.

The after care facilities here at Thompson and Smith can help keep your car in good health for longer.

As the dark icy days of winter disappear behind us and the warm balmy days of summer beckon, it is an ideal time to get your Vauxhall vehicle serviced ready for a season of days out, seaside trips and maybe even driving holidays away in your pride and joy.

After a bank holiday and some nice weather, maybe you’ve been wondering how you’ll fit all that family luggage into the car ahead of the big getaway, then it might be time to upgrade to the new-look Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer.
