1998 Vauxhall Vectra SRi 2.0 from UK and Ireland
Summary:
A great looking economical car
Faults:
Nothing has gone wrong with this car. I just service it at the required intervals.
General Comments:
I previously had a 2.5 V6 CDX. I miss the leather interior and the 2.5 engine. I do though prefer the lower suspension and the handling on the SRi.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Hello I find it strange that you have had problems with this car, I have owned my 1997 GLS 2.0 Vectra Automatic since new and bar routine servicing, 1 set of tyres and 1 new battery, it has behaved faultlessly. As for your comments on MPG, I can only think your problem comes from how hard you drive the car. I admit to being careful and possibly slow on the roads, but have never got less than 350 miles on a tankful.
In conclusion I would not hesitate to buy another Vectra or possibly Astra this time (do not need anything larger).
I wonder if you have bought one of those Friday afternoon cars which all manufacturers can suffer from. I hope you get better luck from another manufacturer.
Michael.
