2003 Vauxhall Vectra LS review from UK and Ireland
"Good motorway workhorse"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No problems.
General comments?
Great fuel economy.
The 2ltr diesel engine is quite a bit slower than the 2.2 I had in my last Vectra, but you get used to the lower performance.
High waist makes for poor visibility for rear passengers, especially small children.
Indicators are annoying. They are a 'paddle' style and I still end up knocking them on accidentally.
Excellent spec for the entry level.
Massive improvement on the previous model Vectra in just about every area - in particular the driver & passenger seats which now have lumbar support as standard.
