The Opel/Vauxhall/Buick/Holden Insignia/Regal/Commodore has already been evaluated by most journalists as a fairly dull & unremarkable car:

The air-conditioner is too loud, even in it's weakest setting."

So isn't "Commo-bore" -- while blunt -- the correct and logical assessment you would expect?
If you are going to buy a bland mid-sized car, why not buy a Skoda Superb? It comes with a longer warranty.
