"Over priced and unreliable"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Turbo hose pipes split at low mileage.

Alarm unit and digital display needed renewing after two years.

Takes one hours labour to change dashboard lightbulb.

Mass air flow sensor gone at 60000 miles. Cost £400 to replace.

Fuel pump needs replacing at 69000 miles. Cost £2200.

General comments?

Past cars have registered at least 100,000 miles (all turbo diesels) before major faults occurred.

Vauxhalls poor reliability and cost of repair will mean I will never buy a Vauxhal again.

£400 for a new mass airflow sensor?! I bought a OEM Bosch replacement for my Vectra from Vauxhall and it cost £140, but I fitted it myself.
