Vectra SRI XP 2.0T

**JD007** · 17th December 2009, 01:38

Hi Guys,

I am thinking of purchasing a Vectra SRI XP 2.0T and was wondering if these cars are reliable?

I have had various VAG 1.8T cars in the past and they have all been great.

Am particularly interested in known engine or gearbox issues.

Have done a brief search already and the general consensus is that the 2.0T engine is a gem!

Many thanks.

Pretty much regarded as the best engine in the range, very tunable, no real issue's and decent economy. Buy it, you wont be dissapointed, i have owned mine for over 3yrs now and its a great car!

Best all rounder in my opinion, I reckon an XP Vectra SRi 2.0T with a nice leather interior is as good as it gets!

Excellent. Will be popping to the dealer in the next few hours to go and see it.
It has the snowflake wheels and comes with sat nav, parking sensors and cruise cont.
07 plate with 24k on the clock and up for £7995.

sounds perfect mate, would have got one myself but insurance dictates I can only afford a 1.8

ive got one mate and i love it mines a 2.0 turbo nav xp with front and rear parking sensors ,its star silver,mines done 62k miles and has been so far 100% reliable ,i would point out that its tuneable but nowhere near as tuneable as the 1.8 20v turbo vw engine if its huge power you are after, but buy it and you will love it
