Passenger seat has fallen apart no less than three times.
Air conditioning seems to have a life of its own. Sometimes exceptionally cold, other times hotter than the outside air.
Huge alloy wheels with 16 inch tyres are expensive to replace.
Seats are uncomfortable in the extreme and fall apart.
Rear visibility very restricted because of the enormous and pointless spoiler. Have asked the dealer to remove it, they refused.
Crap air conditioning system.
1.8 is OK, but not a patch on my previous 1.8 vtec Honda Integra.
My company gave me this car to stop me leaving so I can't complain too much.
I'm not surprised the car's rubbish. You bought an SXi. This is just a cheap knockoff model that vauxhall made for those that couldn't handle a SRi or GSi. Get a real SRi or GSi, and then try complaining. The smile on your face will be so wide you won't be able to talk!
Have you know I'm a vauxhall engineer and the sxi 1.8 vectra has the same performance as the 1.8 sri the only difference between the two is the sri has colour coded door handles front spot lights and an irmscher back box exhaust, they both have 16 inch alloys all be it different in style!THE ENGINES ARE THE SAME SPEC!!
It's hardly going to go as well as a vtec Integra! I have an SXi, and it's perfectly fine as a runabout family car, and as it has the updated 125bhp engine, it's not much slower than a 2.0 SRi, and cheaper to run and insure. If you want speed, get a motorbike!
