The VAUXHALL VECTRA (1995-02) 4DR SALOON 2.6I V6 SRI is a four-door, mid-size family saloon from Vauxhall’s mainstream range. It offered more space and comfort than a small hatchback, while the SRi trim and V6 engine gave it a sportier character. In the UK, it competed with family favourites such as the Ford Mondeo and Peugeot 406. That combination made it appealing to drivers wanting relaxed everyday transport with stronger acceleration for overtaking, rather than a basic commuter car. It can suit couples or families needing a practical boot and comfortable longer journeys, though its age and V6’s likely higher fuel use make condition and running costs important to check. mycarcheck.com records 65 look-ups covering 25 different VINs, so this is a useful snapshot, not a huge sample. Checked examples averaged 130,000 miles, nearly six previous keepers and a £300 private-sale valuation, suggesting an inexpensive classic saloon where history matters.
