Dub Dub Dub ![]() | Re: Vauxhall Vectra GSI MSD Vauxhall's are the worst cars to loose their value, personally im not a fan of Vauxhall's because their so common and cheap, but like PNL said, they are known to fail on the ECU and electrics. My sister had a Vectra and kept dying... strange thing is then she bought an Astra... now there a bag of poop!... But if its just for a run around then thats different, but for long journeys id get an AA/RAC membership! lol

![]() | Re: Vauxhall Vectra GSI MSD our 54plate v6 diesel model goes quite well and is still holding up inside at just over 100k, but you can feel the engine not just rattling.... but vibrating an awful lot... its like sitting in a masage chair below 10mph ![]()
