Vauxhall Vectra Hatchback 1.8 LS 5d (2004/53) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

Economy
Value
Looked at other cars in this price range and came back to the Vectra as we felt it gave us what we needed for the money.
Costs
Not used to driving a large 1.8 car so fuel consumption needs a little getting used to. However, other reviewers judge this as reasonable.

On the road
Driving
Drives well, but as previous reviews point out, loses a lot of power in a high gear.
Performance
I like it overall, but hate the quick flash indicators, I think this is a really bad feature unless you regulary drive on the motorway.

Living with it
Reliability
Fine as far as I know.
Image
I was originally embarrassed when I told people I had a Vectra. Got all the rep/taxi driver comments, however when people actually see it is the new model, they are quite surprised and no longer look coy when I tell people what I drive.
Comfort
Feels good, roomy, and when I move the seat up I feel I have good visibility.
