Still looks a bit dated, the Mondeo looks cleaner.

Quite a few of our sales guys have ditched the Mondeo and gone to the Insignia over the last couple of months and all bar 1 have said it is better than the mondeo.
I drove the Insignia 1.8 SRI last year and hated it, so underpowered but all our company cars are diesel which I have been told has plenty of grunt.Totally Debt Free & Mortgage Free Semi retired and happy0 -
Just pretend to be a buyer and go test drive all three at your local dealerships?
I personally find Vauxhall seats to be very uncomfortable, to the point of being painful on long trips. VW seats tend to be a bit hard too, though I suspect the Passat might be better in this area. The seat in my Mondeo is pretty good.
The Mondeo is incredibly boring on long trips though. I mean motorway trips are boring at the best of times, but the Mondeo is, perhaps, too refined leaving you with almost nothing to do. If you're not careful it can make you sleepy. That said I doubt an Insignia or Passat would be much better.0 -
Have you guys seen the new Passat? IMHO, it is much better looking than the previous versions, and drives very well to...like the Mk5 to Mk6 Golf, they've updated and refined a LOt of things.

Looked at one yesterday, gone to bed, woke up in the morning and I can't even remember how it looked, strong cuppa and still no recollection. Passat Yawn..
(we own an 03 Passat and very reliable it is indeed)Five exclamation marks the sure sign of an insane mind!!!!!

Mondeo, huge and ungainly.
Insignia, ugly except as an estate.
Passat, dull.
Not much of a choice.
If I absolutely had to then the Mondeo.0 -
Interesting...!
Any others in the same class you'd consider then?:A Luke 6:38 :AThe above post is either from personal experience or is my opinion based on the person God has made me and the way I understand things.

New Passat is due soon.
Mondeo is probably the best to drive and overall if it's not your money; Passat better image and a close second - the new model is supposed to be even closer to the mondeo's qualities0
