I purchased my Grandland x 1.6 se diesel a couple of weeks ago. Upgraded from a 65 plate 3008 which I had from new as pre-registered in April 2016. Very happy with it but am delighted with this Grandland. Although the same dimensions as its 3008 sister, this car certainly appears a 'bigger' car.
Completed around 350 miles todate and returning 72.3mpg hoping this continues.

Little error in the post, the vehicle is 1.5 ecotec diesel 128 bhp. Colour is oyster grey, quite a nice looking car.

Hi. Similar colour to mine I have the Moonstone Grey. What made you change from a Peugeot 3008 to it?

I changed from the 3008 and chose the Grandland based on value for money considering size, economy, etc. I really like the Citroën C5 aircross and the new 3008 but this was much better value.
I would have to pay a couple of grand more for any of those diesel models with miles on the clock, compared to this vehicle, pre-registered 35 miles on clock.
Previous Vauxhall being a new 05 plate Zafira, I liked the car but economy on the 2.0 diesel wasn't great, averaged 40-45. The fuel pump and ecu began failing at 6 years so changed the car having done over 90k in it.
