Interesting variations up the page - Ifithelps thinks the new Astra looks like a Kia Cee'd; Alanovic thinks SEAT Leon - whereas I see strong echoes of the Mazda 3, especially towards the rear.
Either different people see things differently (that of course is a truism) or designers of medium-sized hatchbacks are independently reaching some form of consensus.
But then there's 'nothing new under the sun' - I can remember as a child in the 50's thinking how alike four-soor saloons of the early 1930s looked. And there must have been lots of similar designs coming out at the same time since then.
