What are your guys opinions on the vectra 2.0dti's.
Am thinking about getting one because i need something which is cheap to run, and is reasonably comfortable etc...

New shape or old shape? They are'nt that bad, not particularly quick but not painfully slow either. Generally quite reliable, timing chain so no need to worry about belt replacement.

vacum systems are the most common fault
good engines, can do high mileage
not really fast, if you want fast then you want a common rail

yeah nice runners for what they are, the do about 55mpg which is good, vectra suspension bushes go all the time, and check to see if any fuel pump work has been done, as they do go. other than that i enjoy driving mine, alright its not a rocket but it isnt bad.
