2000 Vauxhall Vectra LS review from UK and Ireland
"I wouldn't wish this car on my worst enemy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New fuel line.
Air flow sensor
Petrol tank replaced
Excessive oil use
Poorly fitting doors
Air conditioning fault.
General comments?
This car is without doubt the biggest pile of junk I have ever had the misfortune of driving.
The general build quality is appalling, the car was delivered with numerous rattles, loose plastic and poorly fitting doors and boot.
The general handling is dreadful, the suspension is almost non existent, the car has to be set into any high speed corner, the steering is way too light and the car under-steers at every opportunity.
The brakes appear to have come from a Vauxhall Viva they perform so poorly.
The service from the dealer matches the quality of the car, they have taken six months to diagnose a fault in the fuel tank.
All in all one very badly designed and built car, I can see why its been replaced.
