a guy at work has been on about getting one of these for ages.
each and too there own, not my cup of tea.
i had a look at the brochure when he brought it in.
its got the same dash that vauxhall put in the astra and vectra:(
IMO, in general the car only looks like a vectra with a body kit:(
fair enough, 420bhp is not to be sniffed at, but 6.2 l :blink: i'd imagine it its thirsty:ban:


(walkinshaw performance are the vauxhall approved tuner for the VXR8 ;))
fair enough, you can stick the warranty approved supercharger kit on which will up it to 530bhp, but it does cost £7,000:blink:
you can also add the warranty approved stainless exhaust system for a further £1700
coilovers for another £1600

IMHO, at £35,000 for the base model, upto £46,000 for the fully loaded option are there not better cars available for the cash?:shrug:
at the end of the day, its got vauxhall badges on it :(
