Source: Yahoo! Answers, 3 answers

I'de definately go with the Lancer......better reliability and apparently Mtsubishi have improved the make of their cars, stay away from astras, I had heaps of problems.

Opel Astra H - 2008 (secret menu)?
I have some problems with the battery and the U30 shows 13.3 - 13.1 with the engine on and radio and consumers off. What is the normal value?
Source: Yahoo! Answers, 2 answers

Normally the charging voltage would be around 13.8 with the engine running. Sounds like the voltage regulator is bad. Try checking it with it running and with the lights on. If it is even lower then the regulator must be bad.

Why should I also consider these? X

The class leader is the Honda Civic.

It has sedan and two-door body styles, as well as a hybrid model and a compressed-natural-gas (CNG) version.

The Ford Focus, newly restyled for 2008, has taken a step backward in looks but two steps forward in features with offerings such as the entertainment SYNC controller.

The Mazda3 is the most like the Saturn Astra, with two- and four-door hatchbacks--and it's one of the best-looking, best-handling cars in this class.
