Vauxhall Astra VXR Nurburgring Edition
The Nurburgring circuit in Germany was tested by the new Astra VXR Nurburgring Edition.
Just as the ‘Ring Edition’s 237bhp blown four-pot is identical to the standard VXR, its chassis settings have also been left untouched.
Namely the striking white-with-black check accents paint job, 18-inch rims, again soaked in white paint, and a REMUS back box; and some interior graphics including the obligatory numbered plaque. All of which means “Nurburgring” is probably set to go the way of “GT” or “Grand Prix” and become tired, overused and hackneyed. In the next few years, no doubt, it will be brutally raped by the marketing men and plastered all over miserable little end-of-line hatchbacks with pencil-thin tyres and tinted-glass sunroofs.
