1997 Vauxhall Vectra LS review from UK and Ireland
"A quiet yet very good car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Drivers' window fell down almost, due to mechanical fault in door. Fixed under warranty.
Battery replaced.
When A/C in use, can give a funny odor sometimes which haven't experienced from other car's A/C units.
Goes through tail light bulbs a little too quickly.
General comments?
I don't know why people bad mouth the car so much?
No major problems at all since brought (touch wood.)
Vauxhall servicing costs a bit high.
Very quick for eingine and size of car. Handles without any hassle. Beats a lot of cars at the lights.
Quiet and refined, cruises without no problem and especially good on the motorway.
Very comfortable and good equipment with value. Plenty of room, even in the back.
Very nice styling.
