Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Yes. Ever since I purchased the car new after 3 months it had to have a new heater fan motor fitted, Since then, for 2 years it never demisted the windows without having the air con on permantly and with luck that did cute the condensation. Pentagon Vauxhall had it in on a number of occasions but never could find a problem. This was because they always had it in the workshop and not out on the road. Had to get Motor Codes involved and one of their engineers checked it out and found the the interior motor and filter was damp. Fortunately someone offered me a good deal and took it off my hands. Its a shame that Vauxhall do not take customers seriously.

Good fuel economy and just great to drive.

Heated front seats.
