New Astra Convertible - Video

BTW lack of boot space when the top is down - who cares, just ask any convertible owner out there if boot volume makes any difference in the decision to buy a convertible........

Nope, when I looked at Convertibles 3 years ago, I saw the Mazda MX5, Toyota MR2. The Astra kicked ass on boot size and extras and still have it to this day.

The MR2's boot is so small that you would just about get a laptop in it!!! - That is unpractical. The Astra you can get shopping, a bass tube and boxes in it

If the argument for and against getting a convertible comes down to boot size, just check out the available boot space in a Porsche! At least the Carrera has a back seat (sort of!) that can be used to sit an overnight bag on. The Boxster only has room for a shopping bag in the front boot.

There's enough room in the Astra for my wife and I to go on a motoring holiday for a week or more . . . her stuff in the boot, my bag of jox'n'sox on the back seat!

But, as has been said earlier, you don't NOT buy a convertible because of the lack of boot space.

Imay and Nicecar, you 2 guys are spot on..........

Good to see all convertible owners thinking alike...........
