Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
- You want practical access for everyday shopping and bags: the hatchback opening may suit your routine. Check actual boot space.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 10 years old and 218,870 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
Common diesel options for a 2016 Insignia are the 1.6 CDTi (frugal) and the 2.0 CDTi (stronger mid-range torque); the manual gearbox pairs well with either but the clutch can wear on high-mileage cars. As a diesel this model has DPF and EGR systems that don’t like mainly short urban trips — expect the best economy on longer runs. Opel parts and servicing are generally straightforward and readily available in Ireland.
- DPF condition — signs of frequent forced regenerations, heavy soot or recent DPF replacement
- EGR/intake carbon build-up and turbo operation (whine, smoke, boost leaks at intercooler hoses)
- Clutch engagement under load — test for slipping on a hill and check pedal free-play
- Gearbox synchros and smooth gear selection, especially 2nd/3rd under acceleration
- Underbody and rear-arch corrosion, tailgate lower edge and suspension mount areas
