The Vectra isn't the finest handling car out there but its not bad by any means and I'm sure it'* no worse than a Bonneville of the same age - in fact the Vectra is probably more nimble.
The current Vectra shares a platform with the Pontiac G6 so if anyone has driven a G6 then that'* a good indication of what the Vectra is like to drive.
They're not all slow either. The 1.6 and 1.8 engine cars are slow, as are most of the diesels. The 2.0 and 2.2 aren't bad, and the V6s are quite quick.
