Expert in the house please advice. I,m about buying a few month 9ja used Opel vetra like the one pictured. Is it a good car. What are the usual fault. I used Google but I need a 9ja experience on the matter.

Hi

so first thing, what year is it , what engine and gearbox ?

In 1999 they put facelift in this model. It's Opel Vectra.

Its exactly as pictured. likely 1997
**modified**

My own advise for you is no matter how tempted you are try to go for the manual transmission of this car, my cousin has the the 1999 opel zafira for five years now, the suspension is good I must say engine fairly ok, mechanic can easily understand the car, and it's frugal with gas

Thank. Please more advice from who know.

Its a normal car That has got speed and highly economical in terms of fuel consuption which explains why its used in plateau/bauchi state for commercial.

Opel is a german car and not in the luxury segment, it's American sibling is the chevrolet and chevy isn't luxury either and my brother the car is economical it's got a fairly eco boost engine my cousin's opel zafira fitted with a 1.8l liter engine(1999) has driven from Benin to owerri and back to Benin on less than 40liters how else can a car be more economical.

Normally should have done better than that but the Nigerian road comes to play
