New Vauxhall VXR ~ Nurburgring Edition
Arrived of the transporter at my work today, the NEW VXR Nurburgring edition
To say it was a disappontment was an understatement!
as soon as it rolled off, went to have a butchers, only to find the same brakes, engine, bhp, smaller alloys, not worth it!
At £1100 more than the stock VXR, these come only in white, with white 18'' alloys, remus exhaust (which has to be said does sound good!) checkered decals, dif sideskirts and carbon covers dotted about.
Only 845 (+-) of these being made.
Think il stick to ma fords!

I was hoping they might have upped the power a bit tho, they are decent for a vauxhall but why go to the expense of a limited edition and not make it worthwhile.....imo
sounds brilliant, backfiring as standard!

The suspension is the same as the standard VXR which being a ' nurburgring edition' youd think they might have made it into a track 'weapon'. shame.

over priced and they handle like a bag of shit, good friend has 1 that 280bhp and it awful wheels spins, torque steers like hell and then you come to bend and it goes straight on, my 300bhp turbo nova handles far better
As soon as they bring out a White Corsa VXR i'm gonna go place my order on 1
