Saw a Vec turning into a local dealership with V6 Turbo badge on the chrome boot strip on the drivers side. Not seen one before, it looked OEM. I'm guessing it's a diesel ?

2.8 petrol
Although you could fit it to a diesel... Along with a Halfords 3.0 badge...
Yes, 100% factory 2.8 petrol Turbo, it's the VXR engine, early cars ran 230bhp, then from mid to late 2006 they were 250bhp.
In Vectra, it is only available as an Elite Auto, in Signum it's either an Elite Auto or a Design Manual.
Unless it's a police spec then it can be anything!
Launched at 250bhp then in 2006 went upto 280bhp. Sporty ones are vxr's and elites are more of a standard look.
going to look at a 250 bhp signum tomorrow its an elite and i really want 2 manual but really want to drive one and see what they are like, will post up my findings tomorrow.
I've got the VXR 280 auto, and glad I didn't go for the manual to be honest. First auto I've had & glad I made the change.
I agree with Maverick and wardy completly...The 2.8 is a more rewarding drive as an auto more than a manual! I found the Insignia 2.8 Auto better than the VXR
