I'm not a badge snob I've had many Vauxhalls over the years, Calibra's etc one of the reg was H884 DTM ( They were quite successful in the German DTM at the time!) last two VXR's I had were the J Astra GTC VXR, they went to town on this model, the running gear, brakes etc it was so well planted on the road I ran until Feb this year when I traded in my Black fully loaded Astra VXR for an F Type V8, I have found out I can't throw it around as much as I did the Astra, so have lost a bit of fun factor. It took something special to get me out of Astra VXR's why I ran them for 7 years, so I know how your colleague feels when you say to him time for a change from the Corsa VXR, they are a lot of fun too & he must know them well.
