The VAUXHALL VECTRA (2002-05) 5DR HATCHBACK 2.2I 16V LS is a sizeable five-door family car, combining useful load space with room for everyday passengers. In the UK used-car market, it sits among roomy mainstream choices, competing with family favourites such as the Ford Mondeo. Families, commuters and drivers wanting a single car for work, shopping and longer trips may find it practical. Its 2.2-litre petrol engine is larger than many rivals, bringing a capable feel but making fuel costs worth considering. The five-door hatchback is more flexible for bulky loads than a saloon. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 13 look-ups covering 11 distinct VINs, so the sample is modest. Those checks show an average recorded mileage of 101,000 and 7,000 miles a year, with about three previous keepers; average private-sale valuation is £300. These figures are a snapshot, not a price guide: condition and history matter greatly on an older Vectra.
