-
Economy
Costs
Cambelt every 40,000 is a pain. £350 from Vauxhall. Other than that, good.
-
On the road
Driving
Nice ride, but can be a bit harsh. Excellent cornering ability.
Performance
1.6 16v is ok. Faster than most in class, but if I had my choice again, the 125bhp 1.8 would be good.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Never broken down yet.
Comfort
Really comfortable sports seat.
-
Security and Service
Service
Very poor on quality. Vauxhall don't seem to check over their work once it's done. I have had to return after every service because they missed something. But they are always willing to help.
