Vauxhall Astra 1.6T (2009) CAR review

Vauxhall Astra 1.6T (2009) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Phil McNamara, 10 July 2009 11:30

Vauxhall’s current Astra grew up as a middling car in the middle of Vauxhall’s range. The conservative styling and drab interior didn’t help, and dynamically the fifth-gen Astra lacked the dynamic poise of its peers because of its beam rear axle. Now there’s a sixth-generation Astra – still lacking an independent rear suspension set-up – but with an Insignia-inspired interior ...

Vauxhall Corsa VXR Arctic Edition (2009) CAR review

Vauxhall Corsa VXR Arctic Edition (2009) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Stephen Worthy, 30 April 2009 15:10

The Corsa VXR isn’t the subtlest of hot superminis at the best of times, although now it’s just got lairier, mainly due to an exhaust that will have the neighbours’ curtains twitching whenever you drive by. But can you live with a car that’s not so much in your face as in your ears? What’s the difference between the Arctic ...

Vauxhall Astra VXR Nurburgring (2008) CAR review

Vauxhall Astra VXR Nurburgring (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

The new Vauxhall Astra VXR Nurburgring Edition costs over £1500 more than the standard – and already excellent – VXR. The changes seem limited to some new wheels and tyres, another 15bhp and endless Nurburgring badging that reflects the obsession that carmakers – and some car magazines – have with the lengthy, lethal German racetrack. Is the Astra VXR Nurburgring ...

Vauxhall Corsa 1.6 SRi (2007) CAR review

Vauxhall Corsa 1.6 SRi (2007) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Vauxhall has revived the boy racer’s machine of choice. But rather than Nova SR, it's now called Corsa SRi, and you can even get a diesel. But we've got the turbocharged car on test, with a detuned version of the Corsa VXR's engine. Just think, in eight years times the streets will be lined with lots of white SRis. Hang ...

Vauxhall Corsa VXR (2007) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 13 March 2007 09:53

Not exactly the shy and retiring sort is it? Come on, this is a product of Vauxhall’s VXR division, a sub-marque that makes a point of being ruder, lairier and louder than any of its rivals. So while Renault kept things decidedly low-key for its Clio 197, Vauxhall is taking the opposite tack with the hottest Corsa. Spoilers, skirts, massive ...
