Vauxhall Vectra Hatchback 2.2 LS 5d (2002/52) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Bought for £9000 in January, sold for £6000 in October, enough said i think
Costs
Expect to pay around £100 per tyre, if i had not had a warranty i think it could have bankrupted me.

On the road
Driving
The ride is much softer than my 2000 model, did not install confidence when cornering over bumpy roads.
Performance
A bit slow out of the blocks, more suited for mile munching on the motorway where it is very quiet and comfortable.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Not good, got to know all the servicing staff by name as i was a very frequent visitor.
Image
Love the front of the car, rear end i hoped would grow on me, but sadly it never did.
Comfort
Driving position is good, seats could be better.

Security
No problems here.
Service
Lots of niggly faults from the day i picked it up, engine management a contiued problem, garage seemed unable to sort the problem, was not looking forward to the day the warranty ran out, i would not use Crookham Service Garage again.
