I’ve had my 2020 Vx Line 2.0 diesel for 6 months now and it’s outstanding, I’ve driven Vauxhall’s for 40 years but I’d say this is my favourite to date , and I’ve had some brilliant cars in the past

Very nice review thanks 😊

Iv had the vx line from 2018 , brake caliper and indicator unit replaced under warranty by dealers , has now done 67000 and not had any other problems , good on petrol , low emissions compliant ,usual stuff like tyres and brake pads changed , will probably get to 100,000 no problem if I keep it that long . Bodywork a bit thin , very spacious and easy to drive .

I just brought one because I liked her soo much

Good review. Looking for one second hand with sunroof and flexride. Hard to find

I am keeping my much cheaper 2010 Insignia. These new generation insignias are very beautiful, but unfortunately can't afford to buy one. A massive plus on the new generation Insignia however, is the generous back headroom allowance massively lacking in the older insignias.

I went from a 14 plate to 18 plate. I found it was mostly a positive improvement. Better handling more room etc. However vaux seem to like to strip options from there too end models for no reason

Vauxhall's are fleet cars so are good value 2nd hand 1-2 years old almost half price that's where there value lies never buy a new one, As well as the superb another competitor is the mazda 6 very underrated.

Great review! But the inside of the insignia looks the exact same as my 67 plate insignia grand sport elite.

Get over the large touch screens.3.36. They pop up or actually impede front vision and having all controls in them will cause plenty of issues when there's a glitch or malfunction,requiring software updates, which don't always go to plan either.

I've always hated Opel/Vauxhalls purely for the badge and the stereotypes the drivers have. I went on a business trip recently and was given a FL Insignia like this one - I was blown away about how good the car feels and how it drives. It definitely changed my perception on the brand. Would I buy a Vauxhall? No, they still need to work on brand perception and residual values.

@@th-l8936 You say that having driven the Insignia you're blown away by how good the car feels and how it drives. And then you say you're put off by other people's perception - you should go by your own perception not other people's errant misconceptions. A neighbour that is a fleet car manager of various brands including Audi and Volvo has told me for years that Vauxhall reliability matches and often exceeds other brands, he himself chooses to drive... an Insignia. I drove company cars including Mondeos and VW Passats. The last Mondeo I had gave me a sore back on long and even medium distances e.g. after only 40 miles. A 300 miles each way trip was a nightmare, had to keep stopping. I changed to an Insignia and bingo, no more back problem and could drive 300 miles without a stop arriving fresh and relaxed. I also drove it for 120,000 miles with no faults - none at all. The only thing it needed on first MoT at 100k miles was a new front number plate. Its all in the mind, forget what others mistakenly assume. On residual values, buy "nearly new" and save a fortune, from there the values hold up well and you have a car that is up to the job, its just a lump of metal as all cars are, forget the snobbery.
