Fog lights misted after 1 month.
Exhaust taps on the towbar over rough surfaces, my fault for specifying a towbar on a car with such a large exhaust!
Smooth effortless performance that is a pleasure to use, the car can be driven sedately but really comes alive when pressed, balance and poise are excellent. Chassis and tyres inspire real confidence, original Yokohamas felt superb and lasted 20K, not as impressed with the Bridgestones now fitted.
The engine has yet to miss a beat and uses no oil or water between services, it pulls like a train and sounds great on full song. The brakes are a bit of a mixed blessing as they have the necessary bite and power to stop the car but seem to surprise following drivers.
I am 6'2" and find the seats are really comfortable with a good range of adjustment. The steering wheel gives good grip and control, but it's a brave man who grabs the alloy gear knob on a frosty morning.
This is a company car that has proved virtually faultless in first 13 months of ownership, I will be sad to see it go when it reaches 60K.
I'd be interested to know how this car compared to your previous Vectra SRI?
