If the engine is revving but the car does not pick up speed it's most likely the clutch is slipping.
Do you tend to hold the car on the clutch on hills and at junctions instead of using the handbrake?

Get to a garage, sounds like a gearbox fault, either way without seeing the car couldn't be sure, when the vectra has a fault the engine management will cut power to the car for safety, it may be something simple?? get to a garage!
