Yours truly has just taken possession of the new work horse. All being well, the punters will begin to christen it from Wednesday night if I can get the meter, light and 2-way radio fitted and get it Plated tomorrow.

Recently had one for a week, and on the whole it was an enjoyable drive.

I did not think very much of the rearward view using the nearside/offside mirrors, and the view through the rear window was poor (to say the least).

Have you got parking sensors ?

Other than that a nice motor to drive.

Perhaps I should get them. I believe Vauxhall do them as an aftermarket option.

You are right about it being a great car to drive - much better than the Vectra it replaces. This does replace a Vectra I bought from new in 2006 and the rearward visibility via mirrors and rear window was equally bad with the one scar to prove it...

Do you own your own licence and wheels now ?

Nice. The first genuinely desirable mainstream Vauxhall since the Mk1 Cavalier Coupe.
