Swapped a Vectra for this and haven't looked back. The Paddle gearbox takes a little getting used to but if you change up manually while in automatic mode the whole experience is a lot smoother. I've done over 30,000 miles in about a year and the car hasn't had any problems. I took on the EGS as economically the road tax is £35 and the fuel economy is slighly better than the manual. I've averaged over 55mpg for the last 3,000 miles. Don't like the orange displays or where they are. Otherwise, good car!
