This is a common issue with Vauxhall Insignias and it is usually caused by a weak battery. Cold weather can drain the battery faster, making it difficult for the car to start. I suggest getting your battery checked and replaced if necessary. You can also try using a battery blanket or keeping your car in a garage during cold weather to prevent this issue.

Another possible cause could be a faulty starter motor. If your battery is in good condition, then this could be the culprit. I recommend taking your car to a mechanic for a proper diagnosis and potential replacement of the starter motor.

I had a similar issue with my Insignia and it turned out to be a faulty fuel pump. The cold weather can cause the fuel to become thicker and harder to pump, making it difficult for the engine to start. I suggest getting your fuel pump checked and replaced if necessary.
