On the road
Driving
I love it. Best Vectra ride, thanks to harder/lower suspension and tyres.
Performance
A wolf in sheep's clothes: genuine 150MPH if you want, but quite usable as a family car.

Living with it
Reliability
30,000 miles without a hitch. Had driver's seat replaced by Vauxhall at no cost because of poor stitching! Condensation is a minor niggle.
Image
It's only a Vectra. (Until you floor it...)
Comfort
I'm a big chap, and I find it fine: good on long trips.

Security and Service
Security
Seems as good as the oppositions. Nobody has tried to nick it yet (it's just a Vectra...)
Service
Very little experience, but expensive. Delivery, collection and courtesy car thrown in.
