Opel replaced the first generation Vectra in a year 1988 well-worn, but good Ascona. According to the manufacturer's assumptions, the car does not stand out with any particular extravagance and remains average in the good sense of the word. The most economical, but also the weakest version of all produced is Vectra 1.7 diesel.
The body makes the Vectra one of such cars as Primera and Mondeo. The guiding principle is here: not to discourage anyone with quickly bored extravagance. The harmonious silhouette conceals a pretty decent car. The interior can easily accommodate five people, providing them with very decent travel conditions. Very comfortable seats allow you to travel for many hours without worrying about the condition of your back. Above average luggage compartment
of a capacity 530 liters makes Vectra a good friend for holiday trips.
The tidy dashboard does not attract the driver's attention unnecessarily. All switches, traditionally like in every Opel, are placed within easy reach. There is no tachometer on the dashboard of the diesel version, but the diesel engine loudly announces every step into high revs. The models with power steering are definitely nicer to drive. Cars without it are unlikely to be friends with women.
Opel Vectra owners are convinced of a high level of safety. And actually, they are exceptionally refined in this respect. Numerous body reinforcements and a cleverly constructed load-bearing shell allow this car to get out of dangerous situations with a safe hand.. However, apart from a high level of passive safety, the car is also characterized by a large inventory of the so-called. active safety. The Vectra owes this among other things to the precise steering system, well-tuned suspension and effective and precise brakes.
