With vauxhall not including a number system on the Nurburgring Editions a few fellas on VXRONLINE have taken it apon themselfs to get a register set up with a number system and free badge... based on a first come first served basis with some details to vairify, not an offical number from vauxhall or when produced but think its a great idea for future reference/info on some of the cars history. With the artic having an offical number system already buyers have a good idea of whats been/was done or which to avoid when coming to buy one second hand, be a good idea with the corsa gsi with the numbers now quite low.
Ended up with 016 in the register

Sounds nice if they can ensure it's properly administered.
List does skip a few though, can you pick your own number?

Hmm, I wouldn't mind a corsa vxr if the prices keep dropping. Do the standard ones have diffs?
Any idea how easy they can be remapped etc? 0-60 in 6.5 secs seems a bit slow

People are just recieving their numbers this week ian so its all random atm untill it levels out when people say theirs has arrived in the post, first come first served you cant pick as soon as you fill in the fourm on the site with relevent details for checks they issue the next number.
Normal Corsa VXRs dont come standard with a diff, remaps are easy to come by engine will need work to cope tho

Seems like a good idea, you would've thought that Vauxhall would of made it obvious though. Surley there can't be too many made?

the standard ones don't have diff's, only these nurburgring one's do.
i think 6.5 for a 1.6 turbo is quite good as standard IMO.
remap is easy on them, can get blufin's just to plug in and upload.
taking the precat off is the cheapest ££ for bhp mod.

unless you can ensure that a unique number gets to every model then its pretty pointless imo

Whatabout if someone else decides to number there's or another club starts doing it you may end up with a bunch of cars with the same number which is why unless it's an official vx thing or you can reach every single model its a little pointless agree it should have been done at factory id there is only 500 not like those focus twats that number there focuses 1 of 30000 or something ridiculous like that
