i appreciate you taking the time to leave a positive comment and watching my videos

A version of this vehicle was sold in the United States first as the Saturn Vue and when Saturn was discontinued as the Chevrolet Captiva. No diesels were available. Just 4 and 6 cylinder gasoline engines as well as a hybrid. They sold fairly well and have a decent reputation for reliability/durability. Most up for sale have 175 to 200k.

Thanks Barrie learned more about my new to me motor from watching your test drive video 🙂

Have these the same engines as Insignia ?

I have the white antara, the heating system is awful very confusing, takes forever to get warm , just had icy conditions in the uk took at least 15 mins to set off waiting to defrost , would of thought this would be a top priority being awd but apart from that its great , absolutely massive car , boot is massive , good features , heated seats , cruize control , good spotlights. Sat nav is useless thou

You don’t know how to use it

Where is the link to the Sat Nav/Phone pairing etc? Just in the process of buying one of these and any insights are appreciated. Need to know what buttons do what. Finding the handbrake button a bit disconcerting after a normal handbrake. Thanks for the video. Really helpful

Sorry Barrie I cannot agree. I was warned off buying one but didnt listen. They have a reputation for reliability issues including regular dpf issues. I had numerous issues in warranty and finally at 45k miles only it shredded the front transfer box, a far from unknown issue apparently.. this cost over £4k to fix. Fortunately vx stepped in with a 50% contribution. I got rid as soon as it was fixed as the clutch started playing up. I wouldnt have one thrown at me.

Thank you for signalling NOT......and then remembers to indicate himself 🙄

The sat nav isn’t great but adequate. Most of us now have smart phones so not a problem. I have a 64reg which I’ve had since it was a year old and have to say it’s been amazingly reliable as would the two other people I know who have them. Their will always be a dud one of any make but I can’t rate it enough.

Just check reliability surveys and warranty claims. Even the vx dealer who fixed the €4k transfer box conceded they get a .ot back with issues like mine had. By all means enjoy yours but it will bite you eventually.
