1992 Opel Vectra A 1.6i GL - Walkaround and Overview
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 тра 2014
- This video features the 2nd car I've ever owned, a '92 Opel Vectra featuring the C16NZ 1.6L 4-cylinder engine with 75bhp and around 130NM of torque. This is the base trim GL model. Originally, the car had 54000KM on the odometer and I paid €1800 for it in 04-2014.
Update 24-5-2018: The sad news has reached me that this car was totaled in early may of 2018, 9 months after I traded the car in. RIP. - Наука та технологія
Hey, i have the same one, but with a little bit more extras. Great car, bought it from the Netherlands 10 years ago, still drives perfectly!
at last an English video of a vectra thanks mate :D
No problem. I also noticed how little English videos were on UA-cam. Pretty much exclusively Russian/derivatives thereof.
yeah i guess that is because they are the vectra's main market
I remember this car very well, when Opel was one of the big player in the Car industry after Mercedes and BMW, Vectra came as a replacement of the legendary one Opel Ascona
Love how well preserved it is...I need to have mine painted; only bad thing is that inner lining shows its age. Wish I could find one with well preserved interior
Wow, that car is almost like a brand new! :P sorry to hear that it's totaled :( I have 1992 Vectra 2.0i GLS myself, sadly it's in very bad condition, mainly because of the rust... if I ever get a chance to fix it, Id totally do it, and drive it when I get my driving license around 2023.
Beatifull opel:)
I have a 1995 Vectra A 1.7TD. I wish it looked as good as yours :) Mine is starting to show its age
I had the 2.0i version, very good car. i loved it a lot.
Very nice. Quite a bit more potent than this 1.6 was.
I still have this car dude and i love it 😁😂😂😍😍😍
Looks great!! I didn't saw a first generation Vectra in such a good condition for quite a while! It's a very good car, a neighbor of mine had one of these, and it was running forever! Take good care of it, 90's cars rule!!!
Thank you :). I will definitely take good care of it. I already added about 3000KM since I got it and she's doing just fine.
I have the 1.4. Its a bit slow but very fuel efficient , 6L/100km its very confortable and reliable 480.000 km original engine never repaired and it runs fine . Love the car but i had an accident and now I drive an audi 80 tdi but I will repair the vectra A . My family only drives vectras . My brother has a vectra b 1.6 16v and my dad a vectra b 2.0 16v .
I miss this car :(
This is known as a Vauxhall Cavalier in the UK, nice car. :)
Yep, I know. Mk3 cavalier if I'm not mistaken? The main reason I bought this car was the low mileage and the condition it's in after 22 years.
Je Engels vocabulaire en accent is fantastisch!
Achteraf kan het altijd beter, maar bedankt!
Clean car, bro
Wish I still owned it. It wouldn’t sit in a salvage yard then. The person who owned it after me totaled is last february.
oh man your vectra looks so nice! I could have buyed one of this new crappy city cars but instead bought the vectra 1.8 from my old man, its all beaten up but Im gonna fix it to make it look like yours, hopefully. fun to drive fast enough and safe. a guy in a mazda hitted me in the back last year, it rendered the mazda useless.
the acceleration could be better thou, probably mine needs some work in the guts too...
In a few weeks my dad is going to buy one from a scrapyard and I will restore it!! I'm so excited!!!!😊😎😝😝
+Eduard Foszto Nice! Good luck.
Thx
4 years later, how's it going?
55.000 km wow so good
Our vectra is went 182.000km
It is a really nice car. i have one too. built 1988 - 185000 km and the engine still works fine.
but take care of the rear wheel housings. It's very prone to rust.
I know about the rust in the rear wheel arches, yes, but thanks for the suggestion anyway :). I'm glad this car has always been inside of someone's garage, so it doesn't have any rust whatsoever. And with 56.000km, it's not worn in any way.
I heard that the 1.6 and 1.8 engines can easily do 300-400.000 as long as they're well maintained.
nelizmastr Pay attention to the mileage of this car. www.polovniautomobili.com/putnicka-vozila/5652430/opel-vectra-a-4500
Cheers.
Eight years later, UA-cam thinks I should watch this video again. Good to give an update: Still driving my Vectra. Meanwhile I have reached 362000 km.
Hey man mooie video. Ik wil binnenkort mijn eerste auto halen en deze lijkt me echt nice.
Alleen bij de meeste Opel Vectra A advertenties zie ik dat ze zo een heel oude soort radio erin hebben. Kan je deze makkelijk met een nieuwe vervangen? Wat zijn verder je ervaringen wat betreft onderhoud? Is het een auto die vaak grote beurten nodigheeft? En als laatst, hoe is het rijplezier? Stijf of lekker vlug en comfortabel?
Alvast bedankt!
+Stefanovic Deze auto's zijn gebouwd tussen '88 en '95 dus een oude radio is vrij logisch :P. Ik heb de radio van mijn vorige auto (''99 Citroën Saxo) over laten zetten en dat was gewoon 1-op-1. Splinternieuwe radio's met alles erop en eraan kunnen een uitdaging worden. Zelf heb ik geen tijd om me om een auto te bekommeren dus laat ik dat soort zaken over aan de garage. Tot nu toe heb ik alleen een defecte thermostaat gehad, verder niets. Gewoon de jaarlijkse beurtjes en APK. Service interval is 15.000km. Waar je vooral op moet letten bij dit model is roest. Vooral in de wielkasten. De motoren lopen wel 400k, maar de auto eromheen is dan meestal al verdwenen.
Qua rijplezier is het meer comfort dan wat anders. Je moet niet verwachten dat het allemaal heel strak en snel is. Zeker niet met de 1.4 en 1.6 motoren. De 1.6 is ruim voldoende voor deze auto, maar als je echt snelheid wilt moet je een 2.0i zoeken. Het fijnste kenmerk van de 8-kleppen injectiemotoren op de Vectra A is toch wel het koppel. Hij komt vrij makkelijk van zijn plek. Kleine kanttekening, ik haal met mijn 1.6 75pk qua verbruik makkelijk 1:16-1:17. Dus als je geen scheurmonster bent hoef je ook niet heel vaak te tanken.
+nelizmastr bedankt voor je ervaringen man!
Nice man. Bears a lot of resemblance to my old Corsa although i'm sure it's nicer to drive than that. It will last a long time as long as the maintenance is kept up properly.
Thanks. It's quite comfortable to drive and it's pretty quick too. Not the nimblest car in the world, but definitely not bad at all.
Yeah. I just got a 1999 Corolla and I feel the same way about it.
My summer car Victra :)
I got the 116 hp 2.0i verson and it drives really well :D
Nice. What's the fuel consumption like for yours?
40ish mpg's, or something thereabouts
That's quite decent for a 2L engine. Lot of highway driving I presume?
my father used to have one of this in 2001, a 2.0i blue. I remember as child how much i liked that car
Mine 2.0 consumes 0.65-0.68 10km/L. but i driver like 90% on countryroads
i'v got Vectra A 1994 2000 16v (Red colour) with ori bbs wheels and lowered suspension :) It's my first car.
+SzaumX Nice. I personally wouldn't ever change the originality of the car, but some people like their customization, so that's good too :)
I have a '92 vectra 1.8i just got 330k KM still runs awesome, still tho can't find any nice wheels for her.
mine is a '95 2.0 GLS 8v. I bought it about 20 days ago. Very happy but i have some parts to fix. The engine is OK but some internal accessories need to be repaired. Here in Brazil these parts are difficult to find.
almost died in that car when I was a kid. Father lost control in the corner and we flipped on the roof. Apparently this car has heavy back end so when you loose control you can t stabilize it anymore. I hate that car.
Good Vectra ! ;)
Sure is :)
I LIKE opel
I Have directly The same car very good car
سيارة قوية جداً
Nice car im have one.
What was your previous car
A '99 Citroën Saxo.
I have the same vectra..just blue.
And it is in less factory-state then this one.
that was my first car,but in the and i was replace the engine with the 2.0 150ps and i crash it..
Op kentekencheck staat gesloopt en laatste apk in '95, hoe kan dat
APK checker is niet accuraat op gesloopte voertuigen. Hij is inderdaad gesloopt op 11 mei 2018 dus dat klopt. Ik heb hem afgelopen augustus ingeruild en de hoofdmonteur van de garage vertelde me dat-ie een paar weken terug tegen een boom is gejaagd en dat met minder dan 80dkm op de klok.
wow nice car now you made me hate my car !:p
Don't hate your car :P If my first car hadn't been the scrapheap it turned out to be, I'd still be driving it happily. This one has served me well so far, I just hope it will last a bit longer.
Do u sell this car ?
I traded it in at the dealer I bought it from in late august this year. It's back on the road with a new owner since november.
It's hard if you can show how the pane is opened
?
Have the same car XD
Это опел👍
شلون سياره حلوووه .
عندي وحده مثلها بس شويه تعبانه
وين مكانك اخوية .. اتبيع
Do you still drive it?
MrMarty77 Yup. And will be for another couple of years. No funds for a new car and the low mileage really helps with the reliability.
nelizmastr awesome, I'm thinking to get one myself as well. Spotted a beautiful 2.0 in the Netherlands, thinking about exporting it to Belgium and insure it as a classic for the first 2 to 3 years
Nice. In order to classify as a classic, a car needs to be 30 years old or more these days. By the time this car reaches that age, it has long been scrapped.
nelizmastr over here in Belgium my insurance company sees cars over 15 years as classics and 25 as old timers. For the government it's either a normal car, or an old timer with an 1-OXX-999 licence plate on it. Insurance on an old timer costs €100,51 and classic €201,02/year. The only drawbacks are that the insurance company doesn't allow for it to be used do drive to work/school. If I want that, I'll have to insure it as a normal car, prize based on the engine's hp.
Still much lower fees than here in the Netherlands. I have to pay 32 euros in tax and another 48 in insurance, every month.
how mag mane $?

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🇩🇪
i have the same car but with a 1.4 engine
My condolences, the 1.4 is rather awful
It is slow and a gas hog but it is reliable because the vectra is too big for that engine. That engine was shared with the kadett e, corsa a, astra f and corsa b. On the corsas and astras they were quite zippy and fun to drive. The opel astra f 1.4 sport until 1996 had that engine and I saw a lot of them with 400000 km. It was replaced with the 1.4 16v engine due to lower fuel consumption and lower emissions not as reliable though those 16v usually need a rebuild job at 200000 km

opel quality used to be good, as this vectra. Not the rubbish from today opel (french psa cars basically)
To be fair, until 2017 all Opels were still GM, which means plastic crap mobiles. The old Opel, which this Vectra was a part of, died around 2002-2003.
@@nelizmastr kinda agree with your comment. But GM, in his confusing multitude of brands, have and had still good cars. I really liked opel untill like 2005, and I missed cars like the opel speedster, frontera and omega in their lineup. Even though those cars weren't perfect, they were interesting back on the days. Today opel almost only have underpowered and small-size cars. Looks like a low-cost brand like fiat today.
