2000 Vauxhall Vectra Arctic review from UK and Ireland
"Excellent car, badly let down by unreliable electrics"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A serious fault in the gearbox electronic control unit required expensive replacement £450 on a very low mileage vehicle (<40K)
Wiring & electrics seem extremely problematic on all Vauxhall/Opels of this vintage. This I hear from a number of independent sources.
General comments?
Nice car, very solid feel.
