2003 Vauxhall Vectra LX review from UK and Ireland
"OK"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Handbrake failure on my 2003 Vectra 2.0 DTi. This has happened around 5 times; each time luckily either on level ground or in gear.
Watchdog said months and months ago a new spring is going to be fitted by Vauxhall, but never heard anything from Vauxhall, even just to say we know your car needs modification and will be in touch in due course etc etc..
I did receive my yellow daft warning sticker, so they definitely know I have the affected Vectra and my address..
