Vauxhall Vectra Estate (2003 - 2005) 2.0 DTi LS 5d (2004/04) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

The car tells me that I'm a practical & professional person. It doesn't show me as any type of petrol head, which is what I want. It definately turns heads and I'm neat with my work.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Very envious & jealous. Even upper classes are very impressed.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Definately. It makes the correct impression and looks after me very well. Insurance cost is very cheap. Its even cheaper than my AX!! I'm only in my twenties too.

What are you likely to buy next?

Either another Vectra, an Audi A6 or a BMW 5 Series.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Didn't buy from a dealer

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£5,000

When did you buy the car?

September 2006

Did you get a good deal and why?

An excellent deal as it was just two years old & had the service history & all to match. Very Impressed. A lot of car for the money.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Due to their running costs & easy Maintenace. Also has a very strong image & a very large haulage space.

What was the dealer like?

Excellent. Very professional & supportive. Would strongly recommend.

What's it like to drive?

A godsend from my Citroen AX for space & image. I've found this car to be a better drive than a Ford Mondeo I was trying out when I was looking round. I'm getting around the 50 mpg mark.

What's it like to park?

Excellent. Wierd enough, its excellent to park & can manover very well too. Its a Massive car & I can park it superbly.

Have you had any problems with the car?

No. Just the occasional squeak from the brakes.

What's most practical about your car?

You can carry a lot more than you think. A marquee looks like a small sandwich in the tomb-sized Vectra!

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Cruise control. Very safe to use.
