1996 Vauxhall Vectra CDX review from UK and Ireland
"Mid range family car with a few surprises up its sleeve!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Exhaust & aluminium cover (Rear) broke pretty soon after I brought the car.
Electric central locking broke on rear near side.
Speedometer keeps dropping in the middle of a corner losing all knowledge of what speed your traveling.
General comments?
Apart from all the doom & gloom of the bad points this car has been really good to me.
A new exhaust, K&N filter system & a class tuning session soon ironed out any blips in the throttle & pick up was improved 10 fold.
Comfy is good. leather just make the ride even better.
