New Hire Car Review: 2006 Vauxhall Vectra
1. Steering: crap. Over-power-steering. No feel. Makes driving on the motorway more work than it should be.
2. Drivetrain: crap. Jerky at low revs. Mushy clutch. Soggy gearbox. Gutless under 5000 revs, whines like a bitch above.
3. Interior: crap. Seat difficult to adjust. Adjustable reach and rake on steering wheel inadequate. So much road noise comes in that it's impossible to hear the radio if it's not turned right up. It feels American.
4. Controls: crap. Stupid electronic indicators. Idiotic satnav. LCD screen that's not transflective, so is effectively blank in bright sunlight.
5. Storage: good. Big boot.

Short version: if you buy one of these with your own money, you're a fool.

New Do you wonder why...
The parent company of Vauxhall is in SERIOUS financial difficulty?

I don't wonder. Simply put, I own 2 Mitsubishi vehicles.

I am a SERIOUS fan of older styling, but very badly put together Oldsmobile vehicles (70s-80s). Though major re-work gives the old cars proper performance and detail work. I am talking 1981-1988 RWD Olds vehicles and 1933-1972 RWD Oldsmobile vehicles and 1966-1972 Olds Toronado. Though much of the really old Oldsmobiles before 1933 are works of art, I do not really want to own any of them. Then again REO did make some very nice trucks, of which I'd like to have a few models.

I'll give you thumbs up on your review, which is actually a thumbs down on the vehicle.
