Vauxhall Vectra 1.9CDTi Diesel Hatchback...

Originally launched in 2002 the Vauxhall Vectra underwent a mid-life revision in 2005 that included changes under the skin which made it better to drive. It also got a new look front end but unfortunately this did little to lift the anonymous looks. The cabin is just as plain with a slabby design that lacks style but even worse is the awful button layout on the centre console and the lack of storage. The changes to the chassis made it more composed on the move but while it's safe it lacks excitement and it's not as controlled or sophisticated as newer rivals like the Ford Mondeo. On the plus side it's comfortable on the motorway and there's some good diesel engines available. But with the hatchback available the saloon seems superfluous

It's no surprise that the diesels are more popular and the excellent 1.9 CDTi available with 120bhp or 150bhp is the best engine in the line-up with strong in-gear pace. Both versions boast 50mpg economy and emissions of 154g/km of CO2 so it's best to go for the 150bhp which has noticeably more pulling power. The other diesel is a 3.0 V6 CDTi with 181bhp but although this is quick with a 0-60mph time of 8.2 seconds it's not worth the premium over the 1.9-litre diesel.
