I just bought mine with 47. 000km on it, it literally has all the options possible, but on the smallest diesel engine the 1. 6 CdTi with automatic transition(which is great for me cuz I only plan to drive it home/work, and here-s my opinion on the first month since owning it:
Driving is so good, so easy and it handles very well even tho it-s a big car, it really surprised me, and It-s a very comfortable car.
The technology isn-t anything mind blowing, but considering the price compared to an Audi/BMW, it-s great, a simple infotainment system with good driving assistance, I really like thatt.
The interior quality is good considering the price but there are things they could have done better, like the turning signal stick feels too cheap, and the rear mirror shakes alot especially if you-re listening to loud music with big base. And it surprised me that the only way to listen to music was with bluetooth connected to your phone, no SD card slot or anything. I also wish the apple car play could be done wirelessly.
The quality of the rear camera is really awful.
And what worries me is that the engine is really loud, like I know all these opels are noisy, but I mean this seems a bit too weird at times.
For me so far so good, could have been better, but considering the price I-m more than happy.

Value for money is an understatement.
An audi a3 (which ive got my eyes on) with 100k miles, 14 reg, you can expect to pay upwards of 9k and thats not even an s line, thats a bog standard A3, no parking sensors, no fol in mirrors, no heated seats. Just standard.
An 18 reg Vauxhall Insignia, 30k miles on the clock, that has bells and whisles like parking sensors, lane assist, auto lights, auto wipers. Can range from 10k-13k
And the thing is the Insignia is an all around better car than the A3, the A3 is just better styled.

Matt is being very negative about this car. I drive an Infiniti G37 xs and i recently drove the American version. Guess what, i loved it. It had V6 that was on par with my G. Ride was nice, my wife even liked it. I love that it's a hatchback so I don't need a suv. Issues I have is that GM verison doesn't have 360 camera, 19 inch wheels, no 20 inch. No paddle shifter and hard lower plastics. But I'm buying one within 30 days. Buick Regal Sportback GS is a long ass name lol. Oh and outside US always get better or more equipment.

Advertisement, are there any MANUFACTURING FACTORY DEFECTS AND DEFECTS, as in the Insignia I bought, in the new model opels you are promoting? Surely there is. Turkey opel treated me unfairly! Opel's It did not suit Opel AFTER SELLING THE CAR, TO ACCEPT OBJECTIVE MANUFACTURING DEFECTS AND NOT REPAIR OR PAY THE PRICE. I WILL NEVER FORGET THE INJURIES, WRONG AND INsensitivity OPEL MADE TO ME, AND I WILL CONTINUOUSLY SHARE ALL KINDS OF OPEL'S MISSING, MISTAKES AND WRONG FILES ON EVERY PLATFORM ON SOCIAL MEDIA.

My partner and were driving down the motorway a few years ago and she said that they no longer make these cars, I took no notice till I saw a new one and made a sarcastic comment, this carried on for a couple of years, and every time a new one passed I would repeat her words, till something made me take a closer look, now I own one, and can honestly say a great all round car. Price, performance, looks, and even reliability are excellent.

The reason why the fuse box is in that place, is because of the fact that in Germany (where these are produced) that's the side of the steering wheel. If you buy an insignia with a steering wheel on the left, you'll have a large glove box.
It's all just about the fact that the company doesn't want to spend the money on changing the side of the fusebox.

It's like car reviewers download a script template and then just change the car maker name. If it's a cheap car the design is -boring-, -nothing special- but then you get good value for money. every. single. time! And it does not matter how good the design actually is. the same thing can be boring or excellent depending on the badge and the price tag: D

Roger Williams. what a nice looking Vauxhall car for the money I hired a 2017 insignia diesel for two weeks back then and was very impressed with the drive, power, handling, and fuel economy, so this new one should be a good value for money buy in it's class? Diesel or petrol? a nice looking Vauxhall well done.

This is a Vauxhall in UK, Opel(original) in mainland Europe, Buick in USA and Holden in Australia. Truly a re-branding legend. I don't think any other car was re-branded as this much.
PS: If there are other cars re-branded as this much or more please write in the comments for us auto enthusiasts.
