  • Economy

    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Bought via company car, and discount was huge. Cheaper than an Astra.

    Costs

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Heavy fuel costs are the only downside. 25MPG in country, less when towing.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Easy to drive. Usual notchy Vauxhall gearbox. Good towcar, but rear suspension too light for loads over about 2.5 tonnes.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Shifted well. Behaved good on road and off.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Car itself never let me down. Alarm died and was unfixable by main dealers.

    Image

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Doesn't know what its image is. Bit of a hairdresser's car.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very good seats for long journeys. Little road or wind noise at sensible speeds.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0
