Looks good though.
Are they really that bad? I've never owned one, my mate just bought a VXR so hopefully I'll get out in it soon, but they don't seem to bad.

been in a few quite like them, nice power but its a vauxhall, this new one looks like its taken some of the insignia vxr's styling which is a good thing imo

Great car, terrible dealer network staffed by people that don't give a sh-t.

Reviews so far have not been the best. Roundly beaten into a pulp in the magazines its been tested in so far. Complaints of poor steering, horrible power delivery and not very good handling. Plus the common complaint seems to be that it weighs as much as the USS Nimitz (with a fully laden crew and armament).

This made me laugh as well on sniff petrol.

Interior shot, looks nice

I like the look of it but it's got to perform as well so we will see.

After reading the spec list am impressed, not keen on the 20inch rims but apart from that it looks great :bigthumb:

Love the Seats :twisted:

Will be 5 door, N/A, about as quick as it is now(slower than most other things) but will have heated seats, footwell neons and reasonable handling.
