Found this on my hall floor and thought......wtf is this?! Vauxhall sending me junk mail. Opened it anyway!

VXR Brochure!!! 

Some nice stuff coming out, not sure on the Zaffy. Astra Hatch a defo winner, Vectra is quite nice and the Monara was always a nice coupe.
Out of them all though astra wins for me (in arden blue though)
Anyone seen any of the new VXRs, got opinions about them ? Seen the new Vectra while doing something else up at Vauxhall and it's really quite nice. Yet to see a Zaffy though, showroom or not.
(click for bigger pics btw)

Went over to Essex yesterday and they had two VXR Astras Two VXR Zafs, VX220 Turbo at the back of the showroom and i spotted a Veccy VXR at the back of the workshop as we were leaving and a lovely low miles Europa blue Astra Coupe SE2 coupe on the forecourt 
My fave was the Atra VXR in Flame Red on the 19's

I'm in love with the Astra VXR! I already like the Sport Hatch but the VXR is just the nuts 
Vectra VXR isn't bad either

haha i'm an idiot, i read that wrong or it was changed again 
I thought it said astra VXR, nvm.
Vectra is 250(ish) but i still think it might be FWD, not 100% on this but as far as i'm aware it's FWD. Someone will correct me lol.
Just on the note of the vectra though, i prefer the estate model .
*I'm only really concerned about the astra *
