Stolen from a post on Cruisecheshire:
[quote="charlieuk"]Well guy's since i work for vauxhall i thought i would share a few things with you, Yep you guess it the new corsa vxr as some you might know iam off to millbrook in 2 weeks to thrash it round a track all day...........
But for all you corsa lover's i thought i would share some area 15 classified pics and specs feel free to ask any thing about it.
Spied undergoing final testing near a soaking-wet Nordschleife in Germany, this blue development car is pretty much undisguised. Its aggressive front and rear bumpers are clearly visible, as is the centrally-mounted triangular exhaust pipe. Expect the production model to have integrated front fog lights, though.
The Corsa will use a turbocharged 1.6-litre engine producing 197bhp. That should be good enough to propel the car to 60mph in around seven seconds, and to ensure a top speed of around 150mph.
The Corsa VXR will be officially unveiled at next March's Geneva motor show, with UK sales expected to start in April. Expect a price tag of around £15,000.
" Thanks to autocar for all information & pics"

Saw the pictures posted before at least. I hope that guy has his spec wrong though. 0-60 in 7+ seconds with 197bhp and probabaly decent torque? Must be pretty heavy then. Probabaly because of that horrible body kit.

Looks like someone has taken a 206 and ruined it.
