Should I buy another Vectra?

Hold out for a 2.2, it's the only engine that makes sense in the old shape vectra.

Why don't you test drive some other cars of the same size, then wake up, smell the coffee and understand just why the Vectra was universally slated throughout its production life :)

Ah look, you can start by popping to that dealer you mentioned and taking out their 2000 Mondeo Ghia X. Much nicer than a Vectra.

In news: snipped-for-privacy@mb-m13.aol.com, John decided to enlighten our sheltered souls with a rant as follows

No, *DON'T* buy another Vectra.

They're pretty much by far and away the worst mainstream car in their group.

Try a Mondeo, you'll be amazed how much better they are.

Or a Primera, Avensis, Accord, Omega (2.2 or V6), S40, Rover 75, Seat Leon / Toledo, Passat....

Vectras are hateful, hateful cars. GM have never made a decent FWD car (including the new Vectra), and they probably never will.

No a/c according to the ad. Mike.

I'd be surprised if a 2000 Ghia X (or even Mondeo in general) doesn't have A/C. It may not be listed because it has climate TBH.

Pete.

So would I, but it doesn't say it has climate control either. If it has one or the other, it seems an unfortunate omission. The dealer lists a/c or climate on his other cars. Mike.

Not with 90k on the clock for that price - or any price. You want much lower mileage/usage than this, for any vehicle not just the Veccie.

connected?)

I don't think you can get Ghia X spec without aircon.

All Mondeo Ghia X have at least Air Conditioning, and with that being a 2000 model, it will almost certainly have Climate Control.

There is virtually nothing you would want that that car does not have. Of all the things to think about, spec is not one of them. It's loaded :)
