The Audi S4 might be considered unfairly pitted against the Opel Insignia OPC (or Vauxhall Insignia VXR for the British) just because it’s an Audi. But the guys from Fifth Gear are here to prove that the Audi hasn’t got everything. The Insignia is heavier and 7 hp behind the Audi, but it’s also a lot cheaper meaning it could be the hot sedan of choice for those wanting performance without the price tag.

The classic track challenge is the forum for this comparison, and the idea was to check out two all-wheel drive models. The Insignia is significantly heavier though and while the figures don’t mean much on paper, transferred to the driving experience is where they make themselves felt. We’re not suprised by the results, frankly, and if you’ve got the money - is there really a choice between the two at all?
