Looks like its been standing for short time but in fact its been standing that long. Brakes are not working and fuel pump was also stuck and some problems with idle. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Wow this is in great condition! Hope it gets back on the road!
You right
I hope so too
Turn as Hybrid :)

Yep. Give it a tune-up, fresh fluids, brakes, a fresh clutch, and new tires and it wouldn't be a bad car for a new teenage driver.
Those Vectras were great cars,very stabil and nice.I had green with 1.8 125 hp,sold it with 380000 km on a clock…
Those damn 1.8s are hard to kill!!!
This one looks in great condition, like it's about 5 years old. I had a 1999 Vectra B 2.0 petrol, very good car. I now have a 1995 Vectra A.
Bro just downgraded a car
@@ComputerGuyKeryao No, he upgraded xd. A is always better than B model. They are broken maded by factory :D My father has a 1994 Vectra A for 16 years, and the car never leave us in a bad situation. Just gave him fuel and water thats enough :D
@@ComputerGuyKeryaothe vectra a r actually worth more and better overall
@@CuriousGamer022 Sorry, me I always loved the B Vectras. They look much better than the As. The As look so old in comparison.
That car is in remarkably great shape for its age, and it definitely looks like a keeper! 🥰
Almost a time-capsule car! Not many around these days. Looks ready to become someone's everyday transport🙂
No problem for the Patrol 💪
Good solid car! I've have never seen fuel turn green! 😮 Great start and drive 👍
It is green fuel - very ecological.

You and me both!😮. That was gross 😝
This car was my first car, but mine had steering wheel controls, leather seats and power seats, but when I saw this video, I got nostalgic. Oh I miss my vectra. Even The paint is the same.
Love that Nissan Patrol you got, so cool!
As someone who drives a Vectra B limousine by myself, this is extremly wholesome and heartwarming for me
Офигенная Вектра , молодцы , что оживили одну из любимых немецких авто !!! Продолжайте в том же духе !
Мира , Добра из Ростова-на-Дону !🇷🇺♥️🇪🇪
It's a GM car-once fully owned by the US taxpayers, Now private again and 50% owned by the Chinese.
Тот кто не ездил на этом автомобиле не поймёт насколько она хороша, у меня было две таких 1.8 и 2.0 литра,как она ведёт себя в поворотах .......по извилистой трассе мне не было равных.
До сих пор на такой езжу, лучше новых поло!)
Вот на поворотах в городе, я бы не сказал, что она прям идеальная, за, что и называют её коровой. Вот на трассе особенно после 100 км/ ч, вот тут мне нравиться.
@@Shcapkov в поворотах идеален в этом классе peugeot 406) да и на трассе very good. задняя многорычажная подвеска с пассивным подруливанием от французов - это вещь.
просто рядом пыжика 406-го не было, он бы вас съел.
Aqui no Brasil tambem é muito querido, muda a o motor, o nosso é mais antigo que esse ecotec que só saiu nos carros mais novos da chevrolet (opel), eu tenho um astra g que tambem tem muitos fãs por aqui
I had the very last Vectra B, 2001 production, 2.2 diesel. A rare version, because the interior was white (seats + dashboard). Very nice and reliable car.
That's a very clean car for sitting all that time. Great condition too. I had a 1999 Vauxhall Vectra B hatch for five years, great cars.
My Dad had one of it. 1.6, 16 V. I loved it so much when I was a little girl! It was all metallic grey, dark interiors .. I would like to buy a Vectra again: reliable and fun to drive. Fortunately, I had the chance to drive it before the selling. It was sold to buy a new Opel Crossland.
I agree with what you wrote. But rather than the Crossland, I would have kept the Vectra :)
Looks like a very clean example for not been driven for 11 years!
What a wonderful car.. I remember it felt like a BMW or a Mercedes. And that one it´s a very good example of the quality built car it was. Nice Job.
i have one in brazil, the car is VERY good! it's very comfortable and reliable.
Sou do brasil, vectra e confortável mesmo e bonito.
That thing looks perfect compared to other ones you got!
Greetings, the Opel Vectra, which has been standing still for ll years, is in very good condition, I believe that with a minimal investment that car could be operational again. This has been demonstrated by the fact that you have not had many complications when starting it, as I have seen that has happened to you with other vehicles. Once again you have done it, you have returned a car to "life" when it was "dead". I say goodbye until the next video.
Still looks good.
with a little love it can last for years.
i've had 3.
2x sedan and 1x a station.
in the station I have driven for 13 years without any significant problems.
at 311,000 kilometers I gave her back to nature.
they were good family cars.
very occasionally you come across them.
вектра, пожалуй одна из лучшиз машин среднего класса
It's in very good condition for being outside for such a long time. Great video as always.
Some women cleaned it every summer, that's why it's just like in the video
My two years younger vectra is much more rusty, but i love it! Great car.
that's the benefit of a garage, can last a long time without rusting if stored, I'd prob sell my car instead of letting it rot outside
my dad bought 1.8 98 vectra in 2002,I was born in 98. I had two older brothers. That vectra was ours everyones first car. I sold it in 2019. From the child backseat to my first car was an amazing experience and it was soooo solid car! I am so suprised of that low corossion level! So many memories from this video!
the era when Opel was top notch, surprised at how little rust the car has considering the weather. This model is very common where i live, the only downside is the fuel consuption of the Family 2 engines compared to newer cars, but it still a very good car
My dad has one made in Brazil, its a 2001 with a 2.2L engine, automatic transmission very comfortable and reliable car.
Wow! next to no rust! usually gone on the bottoms of the doors and rear wheel arches! great video Flexiny!
my father had the same exact car, but not the same setup, for 20 years and ran with absolutely no problem. What a machine 😍
Opel reallly got the proportions correct on the body design.
Yes these are very good looking cars :)
Definitely the best condition car you've had for a long time another great video
I still have my Vectra B2. 1.6 16v. Very reliable and cheap parts, excellent car
Qual seu país?
That grey Centra battery must be one very good quality battery. You’re always using it on cars, charging, re-using it. Great advertisement for them!
Very good condition on the 25 year old Vectra B. Love the Patrol you have. Great video 😊👍
Congratulations Flexiny! Another great auto video. That's a dandy little car, great find, nice job, good work Man!
Wow, beautiful car! Looks and runs like new! A really elegant car. And the Patrol is also really great!
This are excelent cars,i have 1 in house similiar its a 1.4 16v 90hp is such a wonderful car,11 years and he wakes up like this ready to go travel with is owner.
This one deserves a second chance ! And is confortable,safe and big car for a family.
Ecotec gasoline and diesel too will live forever.
Another great video, big love for saving this cars.
Have a good one guys.
Here in Brazil, I still have a "Chevrolet" Vectra today, its year is 1998.
Engine: GM MPFI 2.2L 16v Inline - 148cv
Version: Vectra B GLS 98 - Grand Luxe Sport
Digital AC, CD System (6 CDs), Subwoofer JBL.
Amazing car
Nice Vectra! I didn't knew it had a 1.6L version, so interesting!
Great video flexiny, great work, I've had 3 Vectras, very good car,a great car to drive 👍👌😀
The first time I saw such a display (the one on the dashboard with the clock and radio) without broken pixels. Amazing!
that thing survived its coma (no offense) good job Opel for making cars that are abandonment-resistant
11 years?! But not outside in that condition. No moss, no dirt ect.🤔 Far to clean.
Anyway nice, like always
It was under shed and older women cleaned it every summer but car got never started
If you’d bothered to pay attention he stated it had spent most of that time under cover in a shed.
It's definitely 11 years... Look at the fuel that was in it!
@@televisionandcheeseI've now seen it all! Green fuel just seriously gross 😝. Anyone want a drink 🍸 🙄 😊
Nissan is a real beast. And this Vectra deserves to be on the road , again. I've always loved them.
This Vectra is an Opel, not a Nissan
@@Schlaubischlumpf66 I know ,of course. Nissan Patrol and Opel Vectra. Nissan is used to pull cars.
Considering the car must probably be from the late 90s, it was abandoned quite early. Not even 10 years of use.
Quite common the idle problem.
Thanx for this new relaxing video!
Gasoline Direct Injection, you have to clean the intake of carbon because the fuel is injected directly inside the cylinder so there ends up being carbon buildup just above the valve seats. This is why is specified to do a intake cleaning at 100k
Opel inside the seats cloth very good condition stick shift cold outside snow awesome video friend test drive almost like Chevrolet Buick general motors four cylinder good on gas air tires keep bringing new videos best mechanic in the world
I always follow you. I love your hobby. Great job
Самая бодрая машинка из всех, что были. Как будто даже и не Опель.
При правильном уходе старый Опель ещё фору даст всем поло, Рио и прочему хламу
Уникално съхранен Opel, капсула на времето
Chevrolet Vectra in Brazil, and this one is in great condition👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I love the Vectra ... One of my favorite car! Very very confortable
Thanks Brazil
Love the videos man and hello from Croatia :D
Класс, машине столько лет, при этом не ржавая на первый взгляд и выглядит аккуратно снаружи и внутри.
Preferred the earlier Cavalier, but the Vectra B wasn’t a bad car. Ended up with a permanent bad reputation because of Jeremy Clarkson, at least in the UK.
Aqui no Brasil na época era o melhor carro fabricado no Brasil o top ele é um projeto Opel , aqui no Brasil foi fabricado pele Chevrolet, ese Geremy Clarkson, falava mal de Ferrari , porche BMW , as pessoas que gostavam do top gear , eram aquelas que não tinham grana pra comprar carros , kkkkkkkk
Привет всем! Помоему один из самых адекватных машин на канале. Малость поколдовать и будет отличное авто. В свое время очень хотел такой, только с 2.5 V6.
yet again it looks cold,keep up the good work
I used to have a 97 vectra stationwagon CD. Loved the car
I find your videos very therapeutic.
I watch one before sleep, tucked up in a nice warm bed next to the wife !
The Vauxhall Vectra -The Luton special motorway muncher!
Dougie at Once driven for ever smitten would love this.
The boss is back
Hi from algeria 🇩🇿
I just today cold start a w140 after 15 years 😶
That would have been a good video
@@paulie-Gualtieri. yes 😁
Congratulations, excellent work!!! Niterói/Rio de Janeiro/BRAZIL.
Стан машини взагалі мега крутий, як ніби їй всього 10 років і вона заїхала сюди лише вчора!
очень нормальное состояние для таких лет
I love this model, here in Brazil, it is GM Chevrolet Vectra❤
Автору респект! Классные видосы!
Looks pretty good what a shame this car was abandonned , but no more 😁
I hope she's back on the road as soon as possible.
Exelente video. Muy bonito el auto. Gran trabajo. Felicitaciones 👏👏👏👏.
Looks in surprisingly good condition that!
Wooow! A Vectra (almost) without rust in the rust belt! 😮
I always think of the Cadillac Catera when I see these. 😊 Everybody was down on it, but I thought it was a good car. Good work!! 👍
The Catera was the Omega B if you never knew.
@@Soulvex They look very similar nevertheless
@@davida.p.9911 worlds apart really
Opel e carro para qualquer lugar no gelo no clima tropical.
Vectra e Vectra não se discute 😂😂😂😂
Excelente programa saludos desde Argentina
Приятно, и очень атмосферно смотреть вас
i had an Vectra hatchback from 1998, Fuel pump was bad, the timing belt broke and besides that, the car was very fun to drive. It was my first car
Vectra seven birisi olarak çok hoşuma gitti yanlız ilk çalıştırmada o kadar yüksek rpm çalışmasına çok üzüldüm
great car interesting how she kept up running just with new fuel
Here in Brazil it was sold as Chevrolet Vectra.
We have these Vectras here in Brazil (I own one haha). We love them!
Im subsciber from indonesia.🇲🇨.
Amazing bro.👍👍
Yeah really good condition I had a few ventra good cars and cheap for parts 👍
Very good . Another car brought on the road
jak na Vectre bardzo Ładnie zachowany egzemplarz :)
wow,so good vectra)
You have awesome vehicles like that jeep
Patrol 💪 tirelessly in every video
Esse modelo de vectra sempre achei o mais bonito , aqui no Brasil temos muitos , nas versões GL e GLS e mais outras versões que não sei dizer .. todos com motores 2.0 e 2.2 , 8 e 16 válvulas
Me encanta ese auto, acá en Argentina es Chevrolet Vectra.
Old cars is better that new one
163k km - allmost new car)
This Nissan Patrol is mint!
That thing is clean!
Для машини яка простояла 11 років вигляд супер
Nice car❤
Called Vauxhall vectra in uk , looks in great condition
this car made a huge success in brazil
11 years?? it looks like new and everything works! it needs good cleaning and can be used.
Hey, nice Vectra, I have one myself - a CC in red. What's the button you press at 14:16 - the one with the waves next to the defrost button?
I would like to see some of opel zafira A. Great video!
I love your videos
Not expect this condition for a 25 years car. Also easy start)
