Reliability
Engine/gearbox OK so far (45,000 miles), but aircon broken 3 times and exhaust problem. All fixed in warranty though.
Image
Yes, it's a Vectra, but it looks much better than the standard.
Comfort
Nice seats. Lots of adjustement in driving position. Even my 5' wife can drive it comfortably!

Security and Service
Security
No idea. Nobody has tried to nick it yet.
Service
Get the right dealer. If your local dealer sucks, go to the next one. I found the first (bigger) dealer crap. 2nd dealer good.
