if its just a road car you wont need it.
If you are going to be doing a few summer trackdays you may as well fit one.
If you do fit it, MAKE SURE it is thermostatically controlled. If you have just a direct circuit through the cooler at this time of year it'll prob do more damage than good. The oil will take ages getting up to temp.

TBH if vauxhall had it as standard it should be there, for vauxhalls if it's there it's there for a reason.
