Vauxhall Signum 2.8 V6 Turbo 2006

Having previously owned two Omega’s, the last being an MV6, I decided that I would stick with Vauxhall, but wanted something a bit different. As soon as I got into the Signum for the test drive I realised it was a bit of a tardis, and was much bigger than expected, which is good when 3 of the family are over 6ft. The 2.8 V6 Turbo charged engine kicked into life with enough of a growl to get it noticed, but without drawing any unwanted attention. When you put your foot down you realise that you really do have a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Oh, I nearly forgot to mention, it’s really comfortable too. All in all it’s a really good car with enough room for the family, and enough power for the boy racer that’s hidden in all 40 something men!!

Vauxhall Signum 3.2 v6 elite 2004

What an amazing motor,the Signum 3.2 v6 elite is roomy and very comfortable. It’s fast and well equipped plus it gives 28/30mpg overall and it looks the dogs b******s. I have owned Jaguar’s, BMW’s and Alpha’s plus a 3.7 Jeep. Would I swap my Signum for one of these? WOULD I HELL!

Vauxhall Signum 19dti Elegance 2004

Having owned old but reliable cars for years I decided it was time to upgrade and opted for the Signum. Everything was fine until it reached 50,000 miles when the duel mass fly wheel went. It cost a small fortune to replace that and the clutch, having not owned a car in the last 30 years that’s ever broke a spring, this one had two replaced for the last MOT. I think I will go back to the old reliable cars.

Vauxhall Signum 2004

This car was what I thought was going to be my best yet and at just over three years old I'm beginning to think I may have bought and old Vauxhall Viva or Chevette. At 28000 miles it's had a new timing chain, a new injector module, new rear arms and new rear shocks. It is now booked in to have the rear wheel bearings done and the door seals on the front two doors. I'm glad in a way I'm not paying for the work to be done but its costing me money every time it goes in for work to be done to hire cars for the duration of the work. Warranty people don't pay for hire cars! Anyway, other than all the work and all the money I pay out for hire cars it is a wonderful car to drive, a bit of a fuel drinker around town but on the motorways its a good 40 to 50 mpg at a steady 80 mph, shushhhhhhhh! Did I mention speeding then. Lol. Handles the road very good in all conditions and very roomy inside for all the family. One thing it does miss as a new car and that's the heated front screen.

Vauxhall Signum 1.9 CDTI (150) 2005

Having looked for a car with luxury features but not a luxury price tag - I looked at the Signum. I liked its flexible seating, the large (but not estate sized) boot space and the fact it had a nice colour computer with decent (but not amazing) Sat Nav. Everyone who has seen it close up comments on how comfortable it is and it’s a great drive on the motorways. The 150 BHP engine is great and returns between 45-50 MPG and with cheap servicing costs is a good all round package.

Vauxhall Signum 2.2 DTi Design 2004

I bought my Signum on the basis that I wanted a stylish vehicle providing practical and economic motoring. At 3 months old and with nearly £7000 off the list price this car promised to do all that. This was against all the professional pundits who rated it an odd-ball with mediocre driving appeal. But since most of us have to optimise our choice of car and are not seeking Top Gear approval this car is the best thing I have owned to date. Bearing in mind that Vauxhall with Signum probably began the current vogue of the luxury hatch-back, it has been under -acknowledged, in my opinion. In the turbo diesel mode with ’sports’ lowered suspension it provides a firm and stable ride,which can be pushed hard round country roads but is a great motorway cruiser, giving well above 45mpg to every tank -full. It is well built and gets envious comments from friends who like its quality feel. Its not an estate nor a limo but it is both flexible and roomy, for those who dont need the extremes of either, which lets face it, is an awful lot of us!
