astra's indicator

**simon5800** · 21st June 2007, 10:36

dont know if anyone else has this but on the latest stlye astras with the white indicator bits, i find it rather difficult to pick up their indicators nearly twice ran in to one cause i couldnt tell they were indicating as the sun was rather bright and them not braking till the last minute, just wondering if anyone else has this problems with this or any other car

Maybe it's just me, but i have trouble with BMW's, perhaps the drivers of these cars are just not using them?

Nah, it'll just be me and my poor eyesight!!!!!

yes im sure many many off todays cars must be fitted with faulty indicators or maybe its just that some people are too lazy to use them

Astra rear indicators are of the most rediculous designs I've ever encountered, along with Range Rovers, Golf's, Passats to name but a few.

They should be totally clear in my opinion, so it's obvious the indicator is on.

The 07 5-door Astra has the normal clear indicators.

Anyone noticed how difficult any of the lights on the new Civics are to see? If the sun is shining at all the light reflacts off them making the lights impossible to see.

dont try following the new focus,their lights are even worse than the civic in that you cant see any of the rear lights on a sunny day with the sun behind you

Golfs are terrible,when they brake you can't see the indicator

Yup, noticed that and the new Passat is the same.

Yep I noticed recently Golfs and new Civics are not that good...

Maybe it's just me, but when i drive my parent's 54 plate Astra and use the indicator turning left it always flashes the beam! Doesn't happen with my Vec though......
