If you're interested in a secondhand version of the first generation Vauxhall Insignia, the post-2013 facelifted version is a much better bet. It was given smarter looks, a classier cabin, hi-tech features and a more efficient engine range, enhancing its already impressive CV for success in the medium range Mondeo sector. Find a good one and you'll get a great all-round volume D-segment family car.
History
First launched in 2008 as a more stylish replacement for the uninspiring Vectra, Vauxhall's Insignia was instantly well received, carrying off the coveted 2009 Car of the Year title and racking up impressive sales at the same time as other mainstream brands like Renault and Citroen were struggling desperately in this sector. Beyond the stylish panelwork though, there were a number of issues that began to hold it back as the years rolled on.
An interior over-cluttered with complicated little buttons. A suspension set-up too focused on the firm side. And an absence of the kind of hi-tech features becoming commonplace on many rivals. All of that needed sorting - and sure enough was corrected in the smarter-looking and much improved model we're going to look at here, launched in the late Summer of 2013. This offered buyers a more inviting and up-to-date cabin, a more compliant suspension set-up and a pretty complete rosta of gadgetry. It sold until the second generation Insignia Grand Sport and Sports Tourer models were launched in the Spring of 2017.

I have a 2013 plate Insignia 2L diesel Elite, When I bough the car it had 13,000 miles on it, Is now Feb 2024 and has recently clicked over the 255,000 mile mark very reliable car, apart from tyres and brakes, I have had to replace a coil spring, 3 tyre pressure sensors and an alternator belt and perhaps a couple of light bulbs. I have it serviced every year and the cam belt and water pump replaced every 100,000 miles.
Brilliant review - packed full of all the information I was looking for, and more... Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
I own an Insignia Sports Tourer 1.4 turbo (petrol engine) from 2015 it's a great car, it's nice to drive in, and in my opinion it looks great too. I traded it in with 152000 km on the clock. Coming saturday I get an Insignia Grand Sport 1.6 turbo Hatchback(petrol engine) from 2018 with 200 hp, which drives and looks even better than the Sports Tourer in my opinion. 0 - 100 km in 7.7 seconds, which is not bad at all. It now weighs 170 kg less than the Sports Tourer. Both cars have a manual gearbox. I prefer shifting manually.
I have one the elite I love it it’s a brilliant car
Excellent review
Glad you liked it!
I bought a used Zafira back in 2008 and I still have it. Great car and no major issues but I tend to service it often. I’ve been contemplating about Opels as they are no worse or better than other cars. Seems the major problem is branding. The perception is that they are dull and boring.
Nice rebadged Opel!
I’ve had my 2018 Insignia for 5 years, just about to hit 40k miles, a few sensor issues but overall, fantastic car!
Are these as good as e60 bmw 5 series. I like them
Ok👍
