When was the last time you saw one of these?

Built in Luton, back when Vauxhall was still flying the flag for British-built practicality.

Hard to believe this car is 26 years of age, it was once everywhere. From company car parks to motorway service stations, from motorway hard shoulders to suburban cul-de-sacs, it was the nation’s default mode of transport. And now? Almost vanished and is one of those immaculate classics that you tend to stumble accross in an upmarket London Borough with a dateless number plate!

This particular facelift example is a gem, wonderfully original, carefully maintained, and unbelievably well preserved. Having covered just 89,000 genuine miles, it’s averaged barely 2,000 miles a year since 2006. It’s clear this car has been loved rather than merely owned.

Finished in a deep metallic green, the paint still carries a showroom shine, free from major dents and scratches, with little to no blemishes and a professionally repaired sill which was noted as an advisory on the last MOT, nothing more than gentle reminders of time well spent. A truly elegant example of the Vectra B

Under the bonnet it starts first turn of the key, drives beautifully, and pulls eagerly through every gear. Pure, uncomplicated motoring from a simpler time no DPFs, no EGRs, no nonsense making for pleasurable long and short journeys. Renowned for its simplicity and durability, the engine is whisper smooth, the fluids are clean.

Step inside and it feels like a time capsule. Pristine carpets, barely used rear seats and still retains its original CD player You’ll find velour interior, showing no wear or stains. It even smells right! A mix of clean fabric, dashboard plastic and memories of service station coffee. Door shuts, switchgear, and headlining all echo the care it’s received. A proper timewarp and a rolling snapshot of Britain at the turn of the millennium.

On the road, No warning lights, no mysterious noises from flywheel, suspension or any mechanical components. No temperamental electronics just that contented thrum of a late-90s turbodiesel doing its thing. The clutch bites exactly where it should, It drives in a straight line, stops without hesitation.

Genuine throughout from the original dealer plates to the factory stickers still proudly clinging to the doors and under the bonnet.

A true credit to its previous owners.

It’s the sort of car that makes you smile because it exists. A faithful survivor from the golden age of orange streetlights, Ceefax, and a quick drive down to the corner shop for the Sunday paper in your slippers.

Whether you’re a classic enthusiast, someone who values understated British craftsmanship, or simply wanting to re-live the nostalgia. Maybe nan and grandad had one when you was a little boy? This immaculate example delivers.

A lovely, usable classic with all the charm of a bygone Britain and proof that some things really do get better with age
