1997 Vauxhall Vectra SRi review from UK and Ireland
"A wolf in sheep's clothing"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Trip Computer was defective when car was purchased.
Coil pack went wrong on 92000 miles.
General comments?
A very fast reliable car with cheap running costs. 32 to the gallon on average.
Not as bad as car critics have said, but the Cavalier was a better built car.
