2004 Vauxhall Vectra SXi review from UK and Ireland
"Disappointing, and not built to last"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
We have had complete handbrake failure. Fortunately no one was hurt.
We have had suspension problems, stereo problems, central locking not working, alarm going off for no reason several times; normally requires a drive round the block to stop this.
The seats and carpet are also not wearing well for the amount of use that the vehicle gets.
Ski hatch lock sticks.
The boot lining is not fitted correctly.
General comments?
Nice sized car.
Good boot.
Handles well.
Difficult to park due to the highness of the rear.
Indicator sticks are a complete nightmare as they do not always stay on when you have put them on.
Juddering of the clutch when the car is started from cold.
