are there any drivers of the 1.8 Insignia who like there cars? I ask, as I have been asked by wifes relative to get him a large ish car aprox a 1.8, he only does 5000 miles a year now and drives like a snail, he likes the look of the Insigina,, but I fail to understand how Vauxhall can make an engine worse than the previous one, his budget is £12,000, so far have found, OCTAVIA 1.4 TSI, MONDEO 20L, MAZDA 6, INSIGINA 1.8(5000 miles on a 10 plate for 11,500 quid) and a very nice AVENSIS on a 59 plate 6000 miles,11,750 quid, on paper the AVENSIS is winning as a claimed of over 43 mpg, might swing it,, so to my question,, if you had a budget of £12,000 which one would get your dosh.,, thanks ANT.

PS I have only driven the 1.8 Insigina for a few miles,,,,, not for me,, but then it aint my dosh.
