Do Vauxhall OFFICIALLY do a Corsa VXR Nurburgring edition?

I know they do a Astra VXR in it, but today i saw a corsa with the same decals and was wondering if it is a genuine VXR nurburgring of he has had the decals put on hiself?

One other thing, how can you tell a proper Corsa VXR from a VXR replica?

They definately do....
Not sure on the engine though, might be the 1.6 but I heard rumours it wasn't.
Evidence of it.... (Unless someone had modified it but it looked factory to me)

There's one round here.

1. I think they've stuck the decals on.
2. It looks fucking crap either way.

Nah, it's got the fading grey(ish) stickers.

I'll try get a pic of it, some bird drives it, just passed their test so guessing it's not a 1.8.

Sara's is a 1.8 and she got that when she first passed.... Paid £1400 fully comp insurance!

Doesn't sound like it will be, most likely a fake then and a 1.2

Don't think the a N'ring edition one yet, but this similar?

I couldn't see them changing the 1.6T to a 1.8 tbh

Good looking motor. Smoked headlights make a massive difference.

Sorry to confuse everyone but I meant they put the 1.8 in the Nurburgring edition Corsa D and NOT (As I was having a mental block) the Corsa VXR Nurburgring edition

They had a 1.8 that was stripped out at one of the motor shows, didn't think it was available to buy though?

So would i be safe to put £100 on the fact that vaux do not:

Do a nurburgring VXR corsa (D)?
Do a 1.8 Turbo VXR corsa (D)?


What engine does the standard corsa Arctic have?
