Vauxhall Vectra 1.9 CDTi 150 SRi 5dr

Bought my 2004 1.9 sri tdi Vectra 150 bhplast December for under 2k 57000miles on it..worried when I had to change alternator in 1st week n fly wheel (common issue)that was knocking as a precaution £300.. but since then flawless..fast comfortable economic.service it regularly n give it good motorway blast now n then should be ok..plenty of taxi versions knocking on 150k n going strong still..

I had one of them and would never go for another one it was parked up through the week and ued at weekends for family time due to company van as im a delivery driver , it wouldnt start when it did it was very smokey then the turbo went so replaced that then the egr valve went replaced that ect it spent more time in the garage than being used when the fuel pump went due to electrical issues (which i later found was common faults with these cars ) i scrapped it. I now have a petrol Astra which sits and is fine deisle cars cant just sit as it does ruin them so im told by my local garage so save yourself money and avoid the vauxhall vectra

i bought my SRI 1.9 CDTI 150 Vectra, a 2008 car in Feb 2009 with 15000 miles on the clock, as of April 2015 it has 228000 miles on the clock, original battery, exhaust, rear brake discs, alternator. During the warranty period it had no faults. I have it serviced at 20000 miles as per the service schedule by an independent garage, it uses no oil or water and is not driven carefully at all. I have driven to the Mediterranean coast with it, no problems, the only reason I have had to contact Vauxhall was for extra pages for my service book, I know I will have to change it sometime, but will I get anything better? 

I had a 2006 sri 150 estate with exterior pack , full leather etc and only criticism was spec was a little poor .. Other than that it was great to drive , 55mpg regular , never had a single issue and sold with 120,000 miles on it . Very fast and smooth and much nicer to drive than the horrendously unreliable mondeo zetec 130 tdci I had before . Load space was enormous as was rear passenger room . Only reason I sold was due to another child so need a 7 seater . Loved the engine so much and would never go back to ford so I bought a zafira with the same 150 engine ...

I bought this car with 10.000miles and 6 months life in 2006 from Vauxall garage in Peterborough.

I have had so many problems with it that have costed me another £2000 thousands of pounds:egr, flap cooler system, alternator and others.

dont buy as second hand car or it will cost you twice more than you pay for it at the end.

I bought this car in Nottingham last October, it drives wonderfully. Even my son likes driving it!

If your looking to get a car with a good amount of backseat space go for this one and save the months I spent looking for one to take hockey sticks.

I love my Vectra SRI, when I bought this car after going through so many of them to find a balance between fuel consumption, space, reliability amd power it was the only one that grabbed my attention.

FANTASTIC CAR! I have only had the car for about 2 months now, and I absolutely love it! Drove down to Essex from nottingham and I couldn't believe how little the fuel cost was, I managed 148 miles on just £10.00!! The cruise control was especially brilliant. The car is ecceptional value for money, as I bought it for £3450.00 with 90k miles on the clock, nothing for a diesel. Overall the car is great, looks great, drives great and is comfortable. The only down side for me so far, is that I upgraded all the lights, and the rear number plate lights have been changed to ultra bright LED bulbs, however, for some strange reason, they seem to pack up when I do over 50 mph, but I pull up turn the lights and engine off and on again and they come stright on. Halfords say that the car may need some sort of transformer, so this may not mean there is a fault with the electrics. (the normal ulbs do not do this).

Reccomend to anyone, just make sure you get a looked after one!

had my vectra sri 150bhp 56 plate for 15 months absolute pleasure to drive not one problem. 94000 miles on the clock when i bought it 102000 at the moment. 45 miles to the gallon loads of pulling power .loads of space for the family. having a remapp on wednesday on it . great car would recommend to any body

If you are looking at one in a second hand garage.. Then it's definitely there for a reason. Our 05 plate one is a money pit. We are now currently on the second alternator in just under 2 years, manifold replacement etc £1500 dual mass fly wheel replacement, clutch hydraulics and thermostat just recently. Suspension is awful and shoddy. I think we have paid for the car twice over already in just repairs! It's a financial nightmare and causing a lot of stress.

Just stay well away from vauxhall vectra 1.9
