The VAUXHALL VECTRA (2005-09) 5DR HATCHBACK 2.0T SRI is a spacious, sporty family hatchback from the UK’s large-car class. It offers more space and presence than a small hatchback, making it a practical alternative to estate cars and rivals such as the Ford Mondeo, while retaining a lively edge. The 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine gives the Vectra SRi brisk acceleration and an engaging feel, while its five-door layout and generous cabin suit commuting, family trips and carrying bulky shopping. It’s best suited to drivers wanting space and stronger performance rather than the lowest running costs; fuel use may be higher than in family hatchbacks with smaller engines. mycarcheck.com records 95 look-ups across 51 distinct VINs, with an average private-sale valuation of £800 and recorded mileage of 106,000 miles.
