  • It all have started on the way home…
    I was driving this awesome car on the country roads and suddenly had vision…
    The voice in my head raised this question: “You have been driving this car everyday for two weeks so far. Why don’t you review this car and document it on RUclips?”.
    When I got back home, I told to my wife and she supported me straight away.
    So I have called to my good friend who already has successful RUclips Channel (Go and check his RUclips channel - TechBlock). His replay was positive and he helped me to plan, film and edit the video.
    It was a dream of mine to have RUclips channel and here it is.
    This is my first video on RUclips.
    It is so exciting!

      How much was your insurance on your first insignia? That is what is making me reluctant from getting it as my first car.

    Hello!
    I orderd Insignia, Grand Sport, Edition with automatic gearbox. So i realy like your review. About the buton what folds the mirors (from in side the car), I have it on my Beugeot 407 manufactured on year 2006.
    And also here is information about Vauxhalls logo:
    Vauxhall logo has a long history of origin like other car logos. From a reference, the griffin emblem, which is still in use, is derived from the coat of arms of Falkes de Breauté, a mercenary soldier who was granted the Manor of Luton for services to King John in the thirteenth century. The house he built, Fulk’s Hall, became known in time as Vauxhall. Like other car logos, Vauxhall Iron Works adopted this emblem to emphasize its links to the local area. Another is the shape of Vauxhall logo that was used to be square, but it is now circular to fit in the same recess with the Opel emblem. Vauxhall car logo was redesigned and released nine times since the 1920s like other car logos did. The new Vauxhall car logos encapsulate fresh design and technology for the company in its 100years of legacy.

    • @ernesthartung8946
      @ernesthartung8946 Год назад

      @Waj Ali Hi. Urban is usually 26-27mpg, but the difference on motorway is huge as can be 45-48. It's a really big car so I was really surprised that motorway mpg is so good. I drive a lot (15-16k per year) but it's mostly urban, with 1-2 long trips to Europe when I do 6-7k in 3 weeks of holiday. At the end of the day, I really like this car with 1.5 petrol turbo engine, it's really comfortable. 👍

    In Australia this car is sold as a Holden Commodore ( Buick Regal in the U.S.A )
    My wife has the VXR version which in Australia has a 3.6 ltr V6 with 9 speed auto and AWD !!
    Standard is 235 kw but hers has the optional Walkinshaw Performance Upgrade with 275 kw !!
    It's quite a nice car and has decent power ...... a small engine in it would make it an absolute slouch !!
    Thankgod for the V6 !!

    I wouldn’t call this a review, just you demonstrating a complete lack of knowledge about the car and messing around. I take it this is a rental car from the unleaded sticker on the dash? So at least that explains your lack of knowledge on it. Btw remote global closing is certainly not a new feature, my old Omega from 2002 had it and I know Rover cars had it in the 90’s. Having said all that I don’t want to be mean, the video does have some entertainment value.
