How much is the vectra gsi on insurance compared to the golf? I'd have thought it would be more expensive?

[tweed]

It's a family car and not a hot hatch 

[16valver dan]

Hate to burst your bubble but all Vectra GSI's were made by MSD apart from the later 2.6 cars which were made in house by Vauxhall.

The whole MSD thing came about as over the years some cars lost the slam panel sticker / spec plate.

And they made a lot more than 3000, estates were a lot rarer.

according to vauxhall website 3200 were made 500 estates and th st200 models being rarest
