Hello forum,
Glad I have found this site, lots of helpful information that no doubt will come in handy one day

Recently bought myself a silver '05 Signum 3.0 Cdti Elite auto

My first Vauxhall and my first diesel too, loving it so far. I decided to go for it as the motors I drive for work are both Vec C based and I find them very comfortable to drive.

Here is the sig

and here are the 2 works motors

Both are petrol auto's, the 'estate' is 2.2 and the 'saloon' is 3.2.

It is quite interesting how different they feel to drive, the signum feels quickest although you do feel that it is carrying its weight upfront. The other two feel smoother due to longer wheel bases, although being just a four pot the estate feels very light at the front. The nicest to drive has to be the limo, only with somebody else paying the fuel bills though.

oh and none of them have parking sensors

Welcome to the club m8.

If the hearse ever breaks down you could always put the coffin in your signum.

Hi And welcome.

Ahh the stretch and hearse, in March my Father's last ride was in a Vectra identical to this and my Mother wife and I rode in the stretch Vectra behind him. It was IIRC a 1.8 Auto.
