If you want one (don't understand why), get a nearly new one thats already dropped nearly half its value...
Nothing against Vauxhalls, I love the Vx220 and the Monaro looks an interesting car with a cool engine.

My bro wanted a Astra Coupe Turbo thingy
Then he had a race with one in his 165bhp FRST and changed his mind.
In his words "Thought it would be quicker than that, Think I'll just put some beige injectors in mine instead"
God lad I thought to myself

Do you ever judge a car by anything other than straight line performance???
You seem to have a thing that unless a car is quicker than a tuned RST then its pony... and that if it is and its a Scooby then it doesn't count because its about to melt a piston!

Benn, pops right actually. When I was out there last year I bought some Aussie tuning mags and those XR6 Turbos look great fun. They run about 0.00005 PSI boost and are still quick. Whack that up and watch em fly...

XR6 is for girls, XR8 or Commadore SS is much better
Astras are for hairdressers no matter what model they are
