I know mine is 170 bhp and as said not slow. Gets to where you want it really quick. Maybe it's just the response time, the VW Caddy at work is more responsive on the gas pedal, as are the Transits and the Merc. But the insignia is long winded and does actually get there quicker.Usual Elite specification;Dancing lights, up/down windows, sliding seats, on board atlas, slippery seats, musical bumpers, storm detectors, tubeless radio, female knight rider communication system, all seeing windscreen, cherry air freshener, auto moaning passengers, learner driver, shiny door pins, rear boom box, Heko smoked window hats, rear window sunglasses, 10 million candle flame reversing lights, matching number plate lights, shiny pedals, front and rear all seeing eyes, fully integrated interrogation system, empty bank account .

Not being familiar with vauxhall dash messages I didn't know that " service your car soon" means I have a problem. So I have this message on dash which means I do have a problem and my Bluetooth obd scan brings no faults. Car sounds good so it must be something like egr.i recon
