Enjoyable car to drive: roomy and versatile for family use - especially with clever rear split seat facility. However, when just over one year old, engine seized. Local garage diagnosed low oil problem due to driver negligence - and was wanting £4000 approx. to repair Independent assessment concluded overheating in a cylinder leading to a broken piston - due to manufacturing defect. Vauxhall promptly replaced engine but no apology from local garage! 500 miles on - no problems yet, perhaps the lemons may turn into peaches in time. |
