1996 Vauxhall Vectra LS review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Recalled for handbrake adjustment.
Airbag light on constantly (fixed under warranty).
New gearbox due to faulty gasket, out of warranty (the car is less than three years old) but 'Vauxhall will foot the bill out of the goodness of their heart'.
As my dealer told me..
General comments?
I've had several Vauxhalls with nothing but praise for them, but for me to buy another Vectra I would need much reassurance that all the problems I've had and the ones I've read on your page have been completely cured.
