The Vauxhall Astra is a compact car produced by the British automaker Vauxhall Motors, a subsidiary of Stellantis. The name "Astra" has been used for several generations of cars since its introduction in 1991. The 1998-2000 model years, referred to as the "Mk III" or "G" generation, marked a significant shift in the Astra's design and engineering. Notably, it was the first Astra to feature a completely redesigned chassis and bodywork, introducing a sportier and more modern aesthetic compared to its predecessor.

The Astra Mk III was available in a wide range of body styles, including a three-door hatchback, a five-door hatchback, a four-door saloon, and a five-door estate. It was offered with a variety of petrol and diesel engines, ranging in size from 1.2 liters to 2.0 liters. The model was praised for its well-rounded performance, comfortable ride, and functional interior. It also featured a range of safety features, including driver and passenger airbags, anti-lock brakes, and electronic stability control. Despite its age, the Astra Mk III remains a popular choice for drivers seeking a reliable and affordable compact car. However, finding a well-maintained example in pristine condition can be challenging due to the car's age and prevalence of common wear and tear issues.
