The VAUXHALL INSIGNIA (2008-14) 5DR HATCHBACK 4WD 2.0 CDTI EU5 160 SRI 6SPD is a spacious family-sized hatchback, combining a practical five-door shape with four-wheel drive. In the UK market, it sits among mainstream family cars rather than SUVs, offering a useful alternative to estate cars and saloons. Its 2.0-litre diesel and six-speed gearbox suit regular commuting, longer journeys and family trips, while the SRI trim gives it a sportier feel. Four-wheel drive is a notable advantage for added traction in poor conditions, although buyers should weigh this against running costs. It is best for drivers wanting space, comfort and confident all-weather travel. Compared with rivals such as the Ford Mondeo and Volkswagen Passat, the Insignia is known for generous cabin space and value as a used car. Mycarcheck.com recorded just three checks across two VINs, so figures are indicative: average valuation £2,200, mileage 123,000 and 2.7 previous keepers.
