Damn... that's a great car! That's why I like Opel/Vauxhall! It may be not the best, but certainly if you are not billionaire it gives you the best value for your money. And their performance models have always been AWESOME cars!
I have the same car automatic, had it for almost 11 years and I’m still not bored to drive it, lovely sedan.
i have to say that i think the Insignia is very underrated
Chris84Redfield do you drive it hard
@Emerson Jabari you were right, nobody gives a 💩
Spammers! Cheers
Ich hätte eine Frage: Hast du deinen auto getribe öl gewechselt LG..
My 2011 vxr 2.8 v6 manual with self adjusting headlights in pure white, no m3 can keep up with the good vxr insignia. My car its like taking it for a drive for the 1st time & i am still having the same fun since day 1. Nice comfortable experience drive.
I prefer my 6 speed manual than an automatic more fun & games.
As much as i like my vxr a modern m3 will more than likely leave it standing !
“No m3 can keep up with an insignia” wow
E46 M3 can easily keep up and overtake. 343 BHP :) I don't want to mention newer M3s
as a Insignia VXR owner, I think you've managed to do the most bland review ever. I bought my car Jan 2016
I was hoping for more Welly 💪
It's a difference from Audis, or BMW's it should be in the same line as the 335i/340i
do you ever have problems with the 4x4 because i have read some collumes and a lot of drivers of the insignias has to change their haldex system with a new one. Sorry for the my bad english.
+Leo N. I personally have never had any problems with them however there does seem to be evidence reported on internet forums that some do have problems
Who also noticed he was going fast but. He didn’t use the sport or vxr modes
Looks like it was just you, everyone else has got a life
i have a 2016, 2.0 turbo 250bhp vx line sri, looking to trade it in for a 2016 vxr super sport
Hi Barry, I’ve been watching your videos from Australia and I’m wondering what you think of these VXRs And if he was a private buyer would you own one.
I would definitely buy one, i thought it was a brilliant car
And thanks for watching 👍
What was the gearbox like? I'm looking to buy a 2.0 petrol turbo with an auto and can't really find anything reviews wise
great gearbox, fantastic to drive
@@BarrieCrampton thanks!
I’ve just bought an incredibly rare Sri turbo vx line, manual, stage 1, 275 bhp, 331 ibft, beautiful car, put her in sport mode and she’ll do 0-60 in less than 6 seconds and 160 mph flat out.👍
Is the exhaust stock? doesn't sound it but couldn't tell in the description.
Sounds awesome.
+SuperSuperAllons93 as far as i know it was yes
Thanks very much
You should get a headcam
The Goahead Mpire i have one but i look like a Dalek 😎
It looks like my insignia 2009 still running aswell
good cars if they are looked after and serviced, they will last a long long time
I like the siggy vxr... currently have a stage 1 mapped (blah blah) vectra vxr and the siggy looks bloody slow by comparison !
That’s 1850 kgs of weight for you.
I wonder how sharp this Car is.. Have you ever driven a BMW M5 F10 for example ? Or an BMW M4? I drove one once .. I would Like to know how close the VXR Insignia comes to these Cars in terms of Handling ..direct Steering and Flat cornering . ?
its an awesome car for the money, lots of power, great handling, however it isnt up to M5 or M3 standard as you would expect and i have never driven an M4 so cant say, but its a lot lot cheaper than the BM's and a whole lot of fun
Yes surely it isnt on that Level in many things . But I had the Feeling that the direct Steering and Flatcornering Feel could be on M3 E92 Level in VXR Mode .
Is that the same as a Chevy v6 sound nice
im not sure whether it is, but it does sound very nice!
Saab engine.
But also I love all vauxall
the insignia feels bumpy
well this one has sports suspension and to be honest with all that power, it needs it so it is a little harder than you would expect
I have one automatic with rims 245 35 R20
Excellent car, I'm a fan of automatics
Barrie Crampton me too, and it's comfortable when you're stuck on traffic.!!
Started watching this review, only watched about 30 seconds and had '6' adverts!!!
have you watched any of your videos? because i think you will find that is the same, ive just watched the start if two, and there were 3 adverts each before the video started, im afraid thats youtube and what you get unless you subscribe to their monthly payment scheme,
Have you watched any of yours as a new viewer? They are the same as are all the other people that monetise their channels, especially if the video is a popular one
Next time floor it and really show us what it can do you wussy.
Yep, that would be good but not for my driving licence
I have a manual 2012 unlimited VXR. Dam fine car love it! Nice video bud,
Did Vauxhall take the limiter off for you ? Does it top 170 mph ?
REPENT BELIEVE no the ones with the Blue Callipers came from the factory unrestricted, not sure what the top end was though, thanks glad you liked the video
REPENT BELIEVE was a factory option, limited to 170 mph, blue calibers and unlimited sign in the rev counter.
hi eafy one
Sorry?
Why you doing videos like that you granny
Roman Mirga erm, because I’m a granny?
@@BarrieCrampton i dont know but you drive like one
Roman Mirga thanks for watching
but the point of my channel is to sell the car, and you would be surprised how many people are put of buying a car when they see it being driven by an idiot
That opel was pretty cool they went downhill now engine wise no more V6s.
I have always loved Vauxhall Insignias they are very nice cars. I heard there's good reviews about them.
They are lovely cars but the truth is they are unreliable with too many catastrophic gearbox and engine failures.
Maybe on some models, but the 2.8 l v6 is bulletproof. Never known one or heard of one blowing up. Providing you stick to the service & get the drive chains changed if your unlucky that is, then these engines go forever. Down side, they are very thirsty.
love my 2.0 diesel but just not massively reliable
@@bighats7465 Oil pick up seal went on mine and the engine seized🙄
@@BestUserNameUK constant cooling issues I had and also dpf blocked regularly making the car go into limp mode
great content i used to have a insignia auto VXR 11 plate and i admit i miss it barry m8
I would have kept the car for myself!
Pritesh Champaneri i get bored very quickly driving the same car all the time, and we always have something in stock that i like to drive
the sloow
No speed limits were broken during the making of my video
Mark Lawson Piece of shit. Do you want him to break speed limits?
Barrie,
Yes?
I think this car with a manual transmission is much much better
i really like the auto, and you can use it in paddle shift mode which is even better, why buy a car these days where you need to keep taking your hands off the steering wheel?
Barrie Crampton flappy paddles all day 👍 best driving experience I’ve ever had using them. I’m looking at the new Insignia VXR, or the FK2 Honda Civic Type R 😫 both incredible cars and look beautiful.
@Michael Rittmanhave u got one mate?
Whats the paddle shifts like? Does it change gear fast?
faster than you could do it manually
