John Wilson Autos in South Croydon was the setting for the launch of the re-birth of the Vauxhall Astra in the South East recently.
More than 200 people attended the launch at the showroom in Sanderstead Road.
Managing director Mike Richman said the night was an overwhelming success.
Ten Astras were given away to lucky prized draw winners as part of a nationwide competition.
Runners-up won prizes of getting behind the wheel of an Astra and hurtling around Brands Hatch.
