As soon as I saw the seat covers, I thought - gotta have been a taxi, and sure enough there was a Taxi button on the dash that would have lit up the taxi sign that would have been on the roof. In the UK, loads of taxi drivers used those cars, very popular back in the 90s.
@@Lobo2265 I still own a Mk4 Astra, which for the last 17 years has never been stored in a garage. There's barely any rust on it and the chassis only has surface rust. The same goes for 2 Vectra B owned by a relative of mine. I think more problematic are the Opels made after 2007-2009, when GM was cutting a little too many corners than it should have.
This car is in really good bodywork condition for its age and stop in the bushes. The engine started quickly and runs fine. You can still drive many kilometers with this car. I think it should sell quickly. We are waiting for the car next door to be brought back to life. Thank you for the video 👍
If one wants to use it for quite a while, he should take care of the rust that, as Neil Young would put it, "never sleeps". Especially the front left wing on the bottom and inside the boot at the rear. There's always a surprise when you remove the carpets.
That looks quite a solid example, good engine type too. It is certainly fast. I have one of these but it's a 1.6. It still drives very well and is surprisingly torquey.
They weren't actually as underpowered as suggested. Your 1.6 has 75 hp at 6000 rpm or something, but when do you really rev so high? The torque around 2000 - 4000 rpm is much more important and there they were particularly powerful, right where you want it, combined with a weight just over a 1000 kg makes the 1.6 even suprisingly nippy and economical
@@markomrako5844 Passat b3/4 is way more complicated than Vectra. Vento and Vectra A have same mechanic solutions and size. Passat b4 can be compared to Vectra B, but the A was way simple. And they had Omega that was merged with Vectra, in last generation.
This Opel, is in great condition, as they did like to rust. And have leaky trunks. I had the Vauxhall Cavalier which is basically the same car, and the rear arches and sills dissolved to nothing, sadly. It was a great car though. If that was a Fiat Panda, it was parked next to, I'd love to see a revival on that if possible. 👍
Unfortunately, they were very biodegradable. I think that's the main reason for their disappearance, as mechanically they were fairly well constructed. Similar story as for older japanese cars, too.
@@Kwaq84or the fact that the last Vectra A's were manufactured almost 30 years ago and they were largely considered "bread and butter cars". Only decent examples left have lived in dry climate or have been enthusiast-owned, same with the Ascona before that
Hello from Ukraine. As I know you are Estonian, so there are a lot of soviet tech left here. Fun to see all those Ladas, GAZ, Kirovyets tractors etc. in whole other country
LONG X NO C flexiny...! I drove this car in 1994 , this is the 8 valves ... It's a good car ...yet the part is expensive N LEES IN THE MARKET ... 2.0 top- speed 220 kmph , imported FROM ADAM OPEL GERMANY ...now I'm driving Volvo 940 turbo 2316 cc and Opel frontera 2.2
Except for body issues (rust) these 90’s Opel cars were made for eternity. 1,6 and 2,0 engines were extremely durable and sustainable, second only to Mercedes W123.
Great job Flex, breathed life into the old girl! Love the wash at the end, really brings the car back to life. Those seat covers are awful though! Lol....😱
Не говорите, у моего соседа была такая же чернего цвет, 1992 года по поему, он перегнал ее из Польши если не ошыбаюсь в 1998 году, не катались на ней а просто насиловали ее но она не сдавалась 😂, машина оказалась действительно надежной, истинное немецкое качество!
Tenho 1 desse aqui no Brasil é um excelente carro! É o mesmo modelo dos carros que estão estacionados no 1⁰ filme do Harry Potter no início do filme, a entrega dele na porta dos tios..
Для любого водителя или даже автолюбителя: Главное правило! Перед запуском двигателя, не забыть проверить наличие уровня масла в двигателе, МКПП(АКПП), уровень О/Ж в двигателе и расширительном бачке, давление в шинах и уровень горючего в топливном баке данного автомобиля.....😅😅😅😅😅
Chevrolet Vectra. Ele veio para o Brasil pra substituir o Monza. Parabéns pelos vídeos que são terapia pra mim 👏👏👏. Espero que tenha vídeo do Fiat Uno que vi ao lado do Vectra. Gostaria de saber o que vocês fazem com os carros após o test drive. Saudações do Brasil. From Brazil.
Opel sitting there seven years the vehicle is good condition stick shift air tires battery full detail inside and out best mechanic in the world keep bringing new videos friend German vehicles japanese vehicles American vehicles import vehicles great video
That Panda in the background looks like a mk1 (pre-facelift) model from the 80s.. :o so it should be pretty rare by now.. also pretty rotten probably :D (vectra is also nice btw ^^)
Этот автомобиль Вектра А по сути как машина времени ? У неё есть дуща. Сам владею такой Вектрой 1994 года, c20ne езжу на ней мало. Кстати она целиком еще в родной краске.Для Российской зимы печка очень слабая. Нужно что то делать. Замена радиатора отопителя ничего не дала. Всем удачи на дорогах и больше любви к олдтаймерам 😊
сегодня ее надо перевести на январь . и будет ездить радовать. я слышал что у 2е мозги дигифант прыскают одновременно 4 форсунки . об экономии в то время вообще не думали . январь 7.2 прыскает 1-3-4-2 в городе расход менее 10 литров .
You have tiger seat cover, need those large dice hanging from mirror, and big old gold chain and you got yourself an instant PIMP 😀 Its fascinating how nature started to reclaim the car but it started, almost instantly, im truly surprised it didn't rusted away more.
Thanks! Pressure washing order does not matter if I make video because I have to do first wash for video and then wash it again to get rid of residues.
Seguro que no soy el primero, segundo, tercero o cuarto en comentarios que pide rescatar al Fiat Panda del fondo. Total, serían cinco minutos. Bravo por el canal¡.
Мне всегда было интересно. Откуда у вас столько машин, грузовиков. Почему они все заброшенные и в плохом состоянии. Восстанавливают ли эти машины? Это их машины или же они только ездят к людям оживлять. Пожарная машина ГАЗ 53 или К-700,откуда?Я понимаю что это страна постсовесткого пространства и там будут такие машины.Хочу чтобы это автор заметил!
Да, эти C20NE перехаживали кузов легко. Такое впечатление, что при нормальном обслуживании ресурс этих моторов был вообще неограничен. Даже клапана не гнуло при обрыве ремня.
I had the same car but it was a 1993, engine 1.8i and GLS. Fantastic car, amazing memories (I went from Portugal to Germany), but unfortunately the last year theblewas blown up and I have to let it go (scrapyard).
Old Opels never die! ❤
yeah something like this one images.pistonheads.com/nimg/46112/mceu_16864301841661186498104.jpg 😍😍😍😍
Here in Brazil exist the same model too abandoned and much others
this vectra deserves to be back on the road.
Ford Sierra, BMW 525, Opel Vectra… we’re in heaven!

Whenever you pull Opel out of brushes, you can already call it success if it didn't broke in half. Rest is but a formality.
This is the realest thing ive read all day

One of the better engines Vauxhall/Opel produced! Excellent trick on the fuel pump 👌 it went well down the rally stage 👍
Love this model... Way better than a VW Vento/Golf 3.
Vectra is comparable with Passat, not to Golf my friend, lol

I love white cars left to rot, dirt, moss and mold looks so good on them 😍
😮👍
😊😊😊
For a 30 year Opel car that was parked in a muddy field for 7 years, not bad at all rust wise.
Your like one of the only people who test drive them after getting them started great video 👍
Did anybody notice the Fiat Panda parked next to it in the first few clips? It would be amazing to see that get fixed up!
It will, probably...soon enough!
Yeah it would be
Yes, possibly a 4x4?👍
Or Seat Marbella
Yes!! Please check this Panda out!!!!!!!!!🙏🙏🙏

Looks nice. I love the seat covers and steering wheel cover. adds a touch of class

Great video flexiny, great work 👌, great car, always loved the Vectra,nice solid car, another classic saved 👌👍😀

You should save the mk1 panda that was parked next to it, should start right up like this one. Fiat makes really good motor
The rear arches look good on this. And they always corrode.

C20NE очень живучий один из лучших 8клопов тех лет. Жаль комплектация самая бедная GL а не CDX.
Причем выдавал он ту же мощность что и 2.0 2Е у Б3 Пассата, но по надёжности конечно превосходил его
