It's a 1995 vectra 2.5v6. One of the coil springs broke in June (only replaced the one...I know not good practice) and was only spotted at MOT time as the car drove and handled fine. Now they have both gone! I was wondering if this is a common problem on the Vectra. The car never goes up curbs but does tackle a fair few speed bumps (never at speed!). I will be replacing both coils and shocks this time as funds now allow it. Do I put this down to bad luck; I've never had a spring go on any other car!
