2000 Vauxhall Vectra LS review from UK and Ireland
"A fast, reliable workhorse and a bargain for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Dashboard light blew.
Handbrake became weak, but fixed under warranty.
General comments?
I don't care what Jeremy Clarkson says, but this car is a reliable, an excellent cruiser at any speeds, a great handler and in my case, a great workhorse.
I tow a caravan weighing 95% of the vectras empty weight, carry four bikes on the roof, and do 3000mile round trips. The seats are comfortable, but passenger seat lumber support does not go far enough back.
The interior is fairly hardwearing, but the dash id dull.
It has never let me down yet and I would buy another one anyday. A bargain for the price!
