Officially the Insignia B was taken off sale in the UK 8/9 months ago, and in the Eurozone by the end of 2022. Poor sales doomed it....Leave a comment:

If you can't or don't want to do it yourself it's a reasonable price IMO. Funnily enough, Vauxhall were doing cambelt replacement at a fixed price for £250, not so long ago and not that bad especially if you are only likely to have it replaced once.Leave a comment:

I never was taken with the Insignia A, as I preferred to stay with my trusty remapped Vectra 1.9 diesel, largely because I couldn't afford to upgrade to the Insignia A.

Insignia 'B' VX-Line Jacking Point Cover Removal
As per the title, for the benefit of any of you having difficulty removing the jacking point covers, they do indeed come out. Mine were apparently stuck solid, and I managed to get them out. I realised when I got them out, they were chock full of $hite from the road (probably never been removed in there...
