Vauxhall grandland SUV.

Why? I thought the mokka was their SUV offering. Seems a bit stupid to put this up against the myriad of SUVs that are already out there.

It looks just like all the other SUV's out there, so unless it's cheap....

Quote from Autocar "The Vauxhall Grandland X is a re-skinned Peugeot 3008 that's too bland and offers too little to stand out in an increasingly competitive market."

Irrespective of how good or bad it is, there seems to be an irrational demand in these SUV wannbes (or crossovers or whatever they market them as) over the past few years.

Personally, I can't see the charm.

It's the Vauxhall Anonymous.

A generic car.

White goods.

Car companies seem quite adept at creating a "niche" market that soon becomes a "must have"Vx tried some years ago with the Signum but failed miserably.

They had the advertising all wrong for the Signum. 

The slogan should have been something like " The Vauxhall Signum.  Perfect for taking all of your old shite to the tip! "

I shall put this talk down to Signum envy.

You lot are just jealous.

Vauxhall found the sweet spot with the Signum but unfortunately the average Vauxhall owner is not sophisticated enough to appreciate it.

There, there, Opti. I'm sure it will break beyond repair soon, then you won't have to listen to that nasty Tigger.
