I hate em.... I got slated to hell in a thread about 3-4 months ago for saying it as well... yes they handle amazing and are quick, I just think they look too vauxhall for a full on sports car

Look past the badge and take it for what it is - a reletively cheap, fast, well handling sports car.

I want one!

The Turbo is cool i had a go in a 2.2 and that was pretty good too. the 2.0T kicks out 200hp top speed 151mph 0-60 in 4.7. The 2.2 does top speed of 137 not sure the 0-60 but i would say around the 5.2.

I went to the Vauxhall heritage muesium on a day out with the VxlSCC, there was a VX220turbo and a Monaro there as well, both look amazing the VX left with everyone looking, it had a straight run up the car park and with the throttle floored it looked extremely scary quick!

voted best car of the year by Top Gear (tested by people who've not only driven it, but pushed it to its limit). Makes me laugh reading some of the opinions here written by people who've never even driven a 220 cos they're too busy driving around in tossy tiny engined Corsas (I drive a Corsa BTW)

When it first came out I thought they were hideous. Grown on me recently still ugly but I would have one!

Shit to work on though!

Example take the plastic arch liner out to remove the headlight to change a bulb!
