I got mine a couple of weeks ago .... 54 plate 3.2 GSi.... I love it !!:Cool2:
Firm ride, but not uncomfortable. Same with steering - positive, but not over sensitive.
Seriously responsive engine - very easy to break 70 in 2nd gear.
Nicely supportive seats - no real need for heated seats due to half leather.
Mine has the satnav option and the B steering wheel remotes - A version is just 3 buttons either side... B version has flick & press controls for audio, satnav and computer.
Make sure all recalls have been completed - main being a 'grind' feel and sound when changing between 2nd and 3rd if you drive 'sensibly'.
Make sure cambelt and tensioner has been changed on time - 4 years or 40,000miles whichever is first.
Put simply, I've gone from a 3.0 V6 Omega Elite - shedloads of power... great cruiser... to the 3.2 GSi Vectra..... and now I really look forward to going for a spin - just for the hell of it... it's put the fun back into driving, but it still returns decent economy when you ease up on the throttle.

Consider the fact you're going from 170bhp to either 208 or 211 depending on model/year.
It'll keep up with and pass a hell of a lot on the road today - the new Evos and Scoobies might get a way a little faster but the GSi will be annoying them very quickly.:Cool2:
:bust: Point to note - Strathclyde's Mercs WILL beat a GSi :shame:
