2001 Vauxhall Vectra Estate LS 1.8 petrol from UK and Ireland
Summary:
Great Bargain, especially with the new model now on sale, these are a steal
Faults:
Airbag Control Unit (showing ghost faults) Changed problem solved.
Slight Knock on steering to left (coupling changed) rectified no problems.
General Comments:
The Fiat was a rocket and had firm suspension, accelerating quickly, but the fuel and tyres also went as quick.
The Vectra is no slouch and gets off the mark rapid and performs well on the motorway.
The fuel consumption is excellent and the seats are very comfortable.
Vision around the vehicle is great with no blind spots.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I'm not certain about the cambelt interval, but I THINK it is around the every 36,000 mile mark. Go check with your Vauxhall dealer though - they have nasty habit of breaking on Vauxhalls! If it breaks it is a full cylinder-head rebuild that can cost up to a grand!!
