Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Positive is certainly fact that good riding. Comfortable interior. I have a petrol/gas, consumption an average of 9 litres per 100km is on gas, so relatively low cost. I think that Vectra is a good car, I have over 400 000 mileage, engine almost do not consumes oil. The engine is working perfectly, jumps at first almost always.
Cons: In my case, car is qouite old. so quite a lot has been repaired, there is no certainty that I forgot something. For exapmple conditioner, was repaired several times last summer and also filled. Visually worse is rust in several places, painting gives only a short-term effect, though rust was cleared and painted with anti-rust paint.
