The VAUXHALL VECTRA (1995-02) 5DR ESTATE 2.2I 16V LS AUTO is a mid-sized family estate, offering more load space than a hatchback without the bulk of an SUV. Its automatic gearbox and roomy boot suit family errands, commuting and longer trips with luggage. The 2.2-litre petrol engine provides relaxed performance, and the automatic is useful in traffic. Against rivals such as the Ford Mondeo estate, the Vectra is a sensible, comfort-focused choice, known more for practicality than style or low running costs. The LS version keeps things simple. mycarcheck.com records just two look-ups for this version, covering one VIN, so the data is only a small snapshot. The checks show an average private-sale value of £400, recorded mileage of 52,000 and two previous keepers. Annual mileage is shown as zero, which may indicate incomplete information. Treat these figures as clues, and check the car’s condition, history and paperwork before buying.
