My uncle has got himself an 09 insignia with 30k miles. He asked me if i could do an oil change because he seen me at the jeep, but with the sheer amount of covers and funny clips i told him to take it to a mechanic instead. But as for the car itself its got a big boot, and almost feels well built, except some of the plastics and switches feel a bit like they are off a chevrolet. And the trim level is strange this one had dual zone climate control, sat nav, dvd player, lots of small buttons on the dash. But for car which seemed to be high spec it didnt have rear electric windows, i thought that was just something all makers did as standard these days.

One of the girls from work had an SRi Insignia to bring to Wellingborough & that was the same. Vauxhalls always have been tight with electric rear windows.

just as well because the headroom in the back isnt exactly generous.
the insignia though it looks like a well made car, the dash in pictures looks quite germanic, but its not as solid as it looks, the c5 is a much more solid car.
