Opel Insignia or SEAT Exeo saloon?

Opel Insignia 130hp or SEAT Exeo 140hp - 2012/2011? Any problems I should look out for?

Hi Michael,

There are no major reported issues for the SEAT Exeo (and SEATs tend to be pretty solidly reliable) and the Insignia generally only suffers from minor electrical issues (usually in the central locking and alarm system) and the boot seals (which can leak and let in water). Of the two, we’d go for the Insignia - it’s roomier, it’s nicer to drive and looks and feels a bit more prestigious.
