I dont see the probem there it handles, like true vauxhall style like a spastic speed skating on ice.

because colin it was a pre production model

TG wanted it, vauxhall said they wanted them to have the production car with proper suspension, and geomentry changes and TG said you either let us have this one or we wont feature it at all

I went out in ollies VXR today and there it nothing like that torques steer when nailing it

maybe vauxhall should have had some balls and told them to fuck off then, surely they would have feautred it at some point and there would be publicity about why it had not been feautred etc i should imagine.

Agreed with Colin here Clarkson wasnt the only one to mention how poor the Vectra Chasis is. Just rember how shat the old Vectra was and so called Supertouring ones were just lukewarm. This has the grunt but no poise.

The Astra VXR although was Vauxhalls press manager fault IMO for sending out a pre sales version without the suspension sorted.

Why has the 'production' model Astra VXR been sent back to them then for a fairer test???

The Koenigsegg was sent back after tweeks after they critisised its handling, surely the Astra should go back as its a more mainstreme car.
