The competiton

In October we asked members of the public to submit their 'ultimate journey' on our Facebook page for a chance to win an Astra GTC for 3 months. The submissions were open to the public vote and with over 500 votes five lucky winners made it to the top. You can follow their progress as they review this incredible new model right here and on our Facebook Page.

Jen's 1st Week

Valentines Day - Picked up the beautiful GTC from Peter Vardy and drove to Ben Nevis. First impressions: People can not take their eyes off the car! It is a pleasure to drive had a great sound system and handles corners superbly. It took a little bit of time to get used to the hand break, or rather lack of hand break. A small leaver takes the break off so hand break starts once worked out are so much easier.  The next 3 months are going to be fun!

15th Feb: Summated Ben Nevis and then began Part 1 of my drive: Fort Williams to Carlisle. Unfortunately the climb took longer than anticipated due to ice, snow and fog so the latter part of the drive was not filmed. Enjoy!


I am in love with this car.  It is sporty, smart and soooo much fun to drive. It is now parked safely on my drive before week 2 of the adventure next weekend where I will be taking the GCT to London for my Olympic training test event. We will then see how she can handle central London traffic!


Pretty cold up at Ben Nevis
An exciting morning picking up my GTC at Edinburgh!

Beautiful countryside
