lloyd — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 08:39:13 +0000

The Insignia has been with for nearly a year and a half now and it has been flying (not literally) out of the show room. In the period since its release, more than 55,000 units have been sold. The car appeals to fleet car customers who like the all wheel drive models and a plethora of new technologies. The retail market has also been interested in the car. According to Vauxhalls own figures, private sales now account for 35% of the share, which is a significant improvement on the previous model; the Vectra.

Award winning: The insignia has won over forty awards

The car itself has been winning award left, right and centre. These include the prestigious European Car of the Year 2009 and over 40 others. else where in Europe the car is doing well in the market. In ten other countries the car has managed to be either the best of second best or second best selling car in the mid-engine sector.

The 4×4 system has also been more readily available: There will be a new diesel version. previously the system was only an option for the 2.0 and 2.0-litre petrol engines. The new 2.0-litre option will roll out into the showrooms in September this year.

The cabins have proved to quieter still in the diesel version as the Vauxhall engineers has played with the engine to decrease noise and vibration.

The engines aren’t the economical though: With Co2 emissions of 129 – 268 g/km, you won’t be saving much on your fuel bill. It will cost you about £9 – £22 to go 100miles.

The Vauxhall does have loads of space, with a boot big enough to fit your dog and some shopping in. The rear seats also fold down for additional boot space. On the subject of the rear seats, two adults will be very comfortable in the rear. The centre seat would be good for a small child and the handy armrest which folds down from the centre, makes it easy for the other adults to rest their elbows.

Prices from new start from around £17,000 and go up to £30,000 and you can lease one for around £230 a month.

First there was the Cavalier, then the Vectra that shuttled the corprate salesmen around the country and was seen by many as reliable but boring. But now we have the new installment of this favourite company car and will be favourite as a leasing option, called the Vauxhall Insignia.
