The VAUXHALL VECTRA (2002-05) 5DR ESTATE 2.2 16V DTI LS is a five-door diesel estate from Vauxhall’s family-car range. It sits in the middle ground between saloons and people carriers, offering passenger space with a load area. In the UK used-car market, it is a lower-cost alternative to newer estates. mycarcheck.com has one lookup for this Vectra version, so its figures are a snapshot rather than a model average. That record showed 157,000 miles, 16,000 miles a year, three previous keepers and a valuation of £300. Buyers should treat these as context and check condition and history. As a diesel estate, it suits families, commuters and anyone carrying luggage or work gear; its layout is the main draw. The 2.2-litre engine offers a relaxed feel, and the Vectra competes with period Ford Mondeo estates. This choice is best assessed by its service record and condition.
