2007 Vauxhall Signum reviews

Vauxhall Signum Design 150 CRDTi auto 2007

I bought my three year old 40,000 mile Signum recently from my local Vauxhall dealer. I was looking for a diesel auto estate so had not looked at the Signum as it is classified as a hatch. My wife found it and sugested that I should take a look. Up until now I am very pleased with it. It is a very smooth, comfortable ride on motorways or A roads; get onto more bumpy surfaces then it is not so smooth, probably due to the low profile tyres. I am getting between 40 and 45 mpg which, for a fairly large car. I don’t think is too bad, although the dealer told me that it had a new engine due to it being driven through a flood six months ago, so fuel consumption should come down as the engine runs in a bit more. It is a lot of car for not a vast amount of money (compared to Audi, BMW, Mercedes etc...) and you are unlikely to find yourself parked next to another one at the supermarket on a Saturday morning. In three weeks I have only seen two others.
