Nothing.
Previously had a 1.8 LS... which had endless irritating problems.
The 140 is a total transformation - stiffer and lower suspension, great torquey engine (K & N filter helps), better steering and C/R gearbox means it is a real pleasure to drive.
Plenty of kit too.
Wait until you have the cam belt break and the pisstons bend on you after 40,000 miles,
and driving at 30 miles per hour. it, s not a pretty sight.
I had a t reg 140 and the amount of common problems they suffer with is unreal I would never buy another one.
I have a sri 2.0 140 t reg ever sensor has gone under 30,000 miles and now at 40,000 am having trouble with the breather pipes carboning up and going soft, and tick over is all over the place,,,,

1999 t reg s.r.i, 75000 miles, no problems at all, great value,
fast motoring from the 140 b.h.p engine
T Reg SRI 140, No problems at all. Very quick. Great feeling whilst driving gives presence on the road. Going to buy a newer one soon.
I own a 1998 s reg and it handles well and I think it is great value for money. Not as quick as I thought it would be, but needs tuning, excellent.

I have a 2000 model 140 and it is excellent no problems what so ever I would advise any body to buy one.
I have a 1999 2.0 140, very cool car. pretty quick and looks fast even when parked! will buy another although may try the 2.6 24v for the extra power just to beat those saxo vtr's!!
Not a bad car, I have a 1999 saloon sri 140 in black, looks sexy, but the chasis is of a poor build quality and at 100k, I'm haveing a few problems with the engine, I would recomend one, but make sure its not from a boy racer.

I have an Sri 140 saloon S reg (1999).Great looking car and pretty fast. I have never had any problems with mine. Would recommend to anybody.
Just bought a Vectra SRI 140 Estate last week end and done 400 miles in the last three days, am very impressed with the road holding and ride. Is also a fast car for a large estate.
Even better when you whizz past the Saxo boys!!!
I have had a s reg,98 140 sri and in 4 yrs had more or less no problems at all, the only thing I will say it that it seems to go through oil like its going out of fashion, was going to have a new one, but going for the signum in stead, but I would recommend a vectra any day of the week.

What engine type is this? its not the z20 range is it?
I had a vectra 1.8 GLS before.. Now I have a Vectra SRI 140 and I think it's a great car... better than any Mondeo... Very fast for a 2.0 litre...Its a Beautiful car
If buy another car is still going to b a Vectra...Wouldn't swap it for any other family car... Exellent car...
I've got a 1999 V reg SRi 140 ex Police car, It still drives great and looks nice too. I changed the cam belt myself in about 2 hours, most things are easily accessible. Well recommended...
