For The most desirable Vauxhall for ages is good on the inside, especially for motorway trips. It comes with lots of toys, all backed by a lifetime warranty.

Against Could be more refined, rear headroom is a bit tight and the car is not as sharp to drive as a Mondeo. Emissions of petrol engines are high, too.

2 out of 5 stars

A good family car that's available with lots of high-tech features, but it's not the class leader, and the hatchback will be more versatile.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

There are dozens of versions of the Insignia. The trim levels include Exclusiv, ES, SRi, SE and Elite, and there are special sat-nav versions on top of that. We'd recommend Exclusiv – all the essential kit at a rock-bottom price.

The choices won't stop there, though, as there are several engines to choose from, with a wide range of petrol and diesel units, including some 'green' Ecoflex units. You can ever get 4WD models.

The Insignia looks great, has a nicely trimmed cabin for a car of this price and offers premium-car features such as adaptive damping, four-wheel drive (ideal for towing), nine-pattern automatic headlamp beam adjustment and speed limit recognition and display.

Ultimately, though, it's more about motorway comfort and stability than country-lane precision. The Mondeo can do both.
