I love the sound too, very unique. Seems incredibly quick inspite of the claimed power output.

Handles well, rides well, comfy, supportive seats, well built, solid - basically not convinced it's a Vauxhall

Limited edition of 500, basically white, optional 19"s in black, black grille and boot strip as well as full heated leather recaros. Meant to hold their money more than the usual ones, but no mechanical differences like the Nurburgring. Just a run out model..

Love it tho!

I like these. Dashboard is awful though, looks like a concrete slab.

Nice! I'd paint the front grill white though personally.
My mate has an Astra nurb, they really do look great in white

Like the black bits on it myself, looks spot on as is imo

I know there's no plans, but if I did one thing it would be exhaust, they can sound wicked

Yes - I believe Arctics were only made between '10-'11. It's quite hard to find an Arctic under 10k.

Normal VXR's can now be had at as low as 5k, and Burgs can be bought at a few K under 10.

The Arctics are the last "performance" Astra H's to roll off the production line.

Clarkson made out Vectra vxrs under steered the second you moved the steering wheel in any direction other than straight. Bollocks they handle well for a big bus, as do the astras.

Lovely looking motor good purchase imo.
