Vauxhall Tigra (04-09) - Review

There's a good choice of models on the used market, both privately and through dealers. The Tigra was discontinued in 2009 with production stopping in July so the latest cars will be on an 09-plate. If you're after a diesel, these were introduced in January 2005 so will be on a 54-plate or later. There were several special editions launched towards the end of its life including the Sport Rouge which comes with special red fabric-covered roof.

Thanks to its low running costs and neat styling, the Tigra will always be fairly popular, especially among younger female buyers. Sport models will be easiest to sell, while the popular 1.4-litre engine is usually favoured more than the 1.8-litre.
