Vauxhall's answer to the big American muscle cars: the VXR8! Like its predecessor -the Monaro- the VXR8 is powered by a V8 engine. This one is a 6.2l V8 with 430bhp. 0-62 in 4.9 seconds and top speed of 155mph (250km/h) limited, which put the VXR8 in the same performance category as a BMW M3, a Maserati Gran Turismo or a Porsche 911 Carrera!
I am not sure I would buy one (considering you could have the M3 for the same price) but I would definitely go on a track day with it!
By the way, the fact that the front of the car does not appear fully is due to the wall of the Manchester car park I was in, rather than my poor ability to take great shots!!!
