2018 Vauxhall Insignia Grand Sport 1.5 Turbo SRI Review

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 KZbin?”.
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 KZbin Channel (Go and check his KZbin 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 KZbin channel and here it is.
This is my first video on KZbin.
It is so exciting!

Great video mate.

Excellent review

I'm 18 and I've owned a Vauxhall insignia at 17 to 18. now at 18 I'm getting one of these in a few days. top review, didn't want it to end

[@SportsTownCrier]

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

[@yannisuhlenwinkel3364]

Great Video, i'm from Germany, also my english is Not so good , but in this Video i understand all of you 👍👍👍👍

[@dgreensuperhoops]

Interesting video. Thanks

[@phillipclaridge3112]

I am thinking of buying one of these cars and this has been the most helpful review I have seen - well done

[@robertcollins9795]

Do not buy one they are awful mainly if you have to deal with Vauxhall they are the most un professional

Good video! .... The logo is called a 'griffin'

Thank you Steve :)

[@ernesthartung8946]

I found this video really helpful. I will get mine Insignia 2017 model, same 1.5 petrol engine in next few days. So I know what to expect now. 😉 Thanks once again.

[@yowhaatsup]

How is the mpg like

[@ernesthartung8946]

@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. 👍

[@sametoruc1347]

@@ernesthartung8946 hmm mpg sounds a bit low for a new tech car? would it be worth to sell my 2.0TDI Audi A6 Black Edition Ultra and buy 2018 or 2019 1.5 Petrol Insignia? I wanna go back to petrol car, Regards.

[@ernesthartung8946]

@@sametoruc1347If I was you I would consider insignia 2.0i turbo petrol engine with 4wd. Mpg is only little bit worse than 1.5 engine but it's really fast, drives superb with 4wd and it's always fully loaded with heated seats front and rear and so on. Regards 👊

[@henriklarsson7835]

Great review. Do U still own it? What is your verdict after a couple of years of ownership?

[@stephendodge4086]

It does have a space for the key, there is a shelf in the storage compartment in front of the gear lever to place the key on.

[@sevesellors2831]

I've the SRI model excellent great looking bargain price and better looking than the other German brands.

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.

[@geddis5594]

Thanks you for your respond. Wow it is very good explanation on logo. Thanks!

[@clanmac66]

Beautiful car, more Audi looking without the big purchase bill! How has reliability been so far?

What mpg do you get?

[@sfcarp9418]

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 !! 😁

it's call Griffin 🤣🤣🤣

[@johnshaw8013]

Well equipped and not too bad looking, but sounds shit, has fook all guts and needs it's tits revving off to make it go! Plus economy is shit at 31mpg when driven like a vicar! Currently got one as a courtesy car, for that it's perfect! Not at all desirable thought! Anonymous!

[@mikewestwood567]

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.
