The Vauxhall Vivaro van

The Vauxhall Vivaro is Vauxhalls equivalent to the transit van in the medium van class. Different vans have different uses some use it as a work van others have converted it to a camper van, minibus, double cab or low deck drop side.

The basic models can be a bit of an uncomfortable drive but if you go for the better interior its recommended at better than a transit. It’s spacious enough for three drivers and the gearstick is dashboard mounted and so provides easy exit for the driver through the passenger door if needed. The driver has the comfiest seat that is height adjustable and a reach adjustable steering wheel. Options include sat nav, stero systems a tailgate and an electronic stability control.

All Vivaros have a diesel engine that make the engine quite reliable but like any van can be noisy at speed.

The Vivaro has good capacity and has a range of side door and rear door options. A three button lock has just been introduced that allows the cab to be locked while loading.

If you are looking to add a van to your business then consider a Vauxhall Vivaro, if you are looking to repair your Vauxhall and need Vauxhall Vivaro parts look no further than Vauxhall.

Vauxhall VX220 Review

The Vauxhall VX220 is the sports car of the Vauxhall world; it is very similar to the Lotus Elise but has a lower price tag and a different badge. The VX220 certainly has the feel of a sports car, its fast, it handles well and the steering is really responsive.

Sports cars aren’t known for their space and the VX220 is no exception, the boot can hold 200 litres and there is a storage seat behind the seats and of course this is a two seater. Speaking of the two seats they provide a comfortable ride but can be a little difficult to manoeuvre in and out of.

The Vauxhall VX220 is quite safe for a sports car with ABS brakes and drivers airbag. It is also fairly secure with alarm immobiliser and deadlocks.

As Vauxhall is not really known for its sports cars you can pick up one of these relatively cheaply for a sports car. If you already have a Vauxhall VX220 and are looking for Vauxhall vx220 parts then look no further than megavaux.

Vauxhall Sintra Review

If you are shopping on a bit of a budget at the moment but still need a large mpv. It may be worth considering the Vauxhall Sintra that has models from 97-99. It’s one of the lesser known mpv’s from this period but has an incredible amount of space on the inside, some versions can seat up to eight people.

The engine is smooth; it’s extremely practical with slide doors and has a great load capacity. It all sounds fairly positive but the car didn’t really get great review as its looks aren’t to everyone’s taste and can have a van like feel to it.

People who like its space tend to rate it quite highly in comparison with its rivals due to its spaciousness. It also quite a comfortable ride although it can be quite firm. When driving you are seated fairly high and the pedals are well positioned. It has remote central locking electric windows and air conditioning and handily audio controls on the steering column so they are easy to reach. Its 2.2 litre engine is fairly economical for a larger car and it can do 0-60 in 10 seconds.

So if you are looking for an MPV on a budget try a Vauxhall Sintra. If you are looking to repair your Sintra with Vauxhall Sintra Parts take a look at Megavaux.

Vauxhall Calibra parts

A coupe without compromise was the Vauxhall slogan for the Calibra. The Vauxhall Calibra was a cavalier with a better design, a four seat coupe so you could have a car that looked good but was still practical for a family.

Those who aren’t a fan of this family and friend friendly coupe may just call it a cavalier with a new body kit. However the new body kit really did give it a new design popular with many people and the car looks great even years after its release and you can still expect to pay a fair bit for one of these cars second hand. The engine is fairly powerful and gives a smooth ride. The car has huge cabin space and will comfortably seat four adults not just 2 adults and 2 kids like you get with a smaller coupe. The rear seat is split folding plus there is room in the boot for a full set of golf clubs. It isn’t the fasted of coupes in its class but it does give many features other coupes don’t.

If you are looking for a quality car with great design then you can’t go far wrong with a Vauxhall Calibra, as far as maintaining your coupe as under the bonnet it’s a cavalier then it is fairly easy to repair and find parts.

If you need some Vauxhall Calibra parts take a look at Megavaux.

The Uk’s best selling car: Vauxhall

Problems surround most areas of the car industry not least western production but it seems that General Motors reports of gloomy times may have been a slight over-exaggeration.

The Vauxhall was the number one selling brand in the UK this February. Even deep in recession the brand that relies on loyal Vauxhall buyers has seen advantaged on catering to their customers’ needs. Not only was it number one in February but it’s the second time in that position in the last three months.

One of the most popular cars in the range is the Astra. The latest model of Astra brings with it all the traditions combined with the latest style and engineering.
The plus points are its great handling, careful steering and some clever soundproofing. The inside of the car is spacious with electric windows and remote central locking as has every model of Astra. The inside of the car is spacious.

The only downside I could find was slightly irritating indicators that don’t always cancel.

The Astra is well known as a great family car and both the new version and older models live up to these expectations and make a great value purchase

Vauxhall Astra’s are usually very reliable but if you have an issue with yours, Megavaux has Vauxhall Astra Parts to help repair your vehicle.
