wow rude, i like

nice one mate made up for you

lovely

Nice one Fella.....you sound happy with it already...


Hws it go???

chiccys sad.....

im a VXR widow lol x

sounds like a nice car, however, i remember them on top gear and it was understeer galore - saying that tho, u aint gonna be driving it like that on the road lol - and they do look nice

The reasontop gear slated it was because....

1. Clarkson hates Vx
2. They removed the fuse for the traction control
3. They removed the fuse for ESP

Driven by a knob with all the stability programs disabled...What did they think would happen.

Nice buy Jonah! I swapping mine too. Stripped the parts off it yestereday. Sold the grille and Skirts, just the splitter and VXR alloys to sell!

Oh and Jonah...get yourself onto the VXR forums and the Vectar-c.com forums for loads of help on on the new mota!

exactly..... it handles like a dream.... still not pressed the sport button yet..... and its suprisingly good on fuel if driven properly....

tbh i thought the astra felt quicker than the vectra on the vxr track day i did, saying that tho i had just got out of the vxr8 and jumped into the vectra. nice car tho.

What a suprise eh Jonah, I wasnt expecting this at all. made up for ya mate. all I can say is "WE NEED PICTURES"

lol.... not had chance yet, been busy all day... will try and get a few later...

It looks nice, and sounds even better!

Saw this in the flesh today, all i'm sayin is i want it, 19" rimmidge, 2.8 turbo, recaros, it was really nice, did you notice the small dint on the boot trim though bud

gotta be a beast...lucky you!

Pictures!!!

Not really a Vauxhall / Vectra / VXR person, but the flagship of the Vectra range...

yeh he know bout that x

done some pics, only on my drive but not had time for arty ones yet.... just nippin out then will get them on the forums...

HERE WE GO AS PROMISED ...FINALLY.......

drooooooooool.........

it is crying out for a spoiler tho.

Like So

lovely car mate love the vxr models

nice indeed matey my bro in laws got the turbo limited vec thing goes verywell not as quick as my 200 though YAY

Love the colour

fit that mate

well jelous.

very nice motor indeed

Nah...I diagree. With the spolier, looks to busy at the back. You want that to be nice and smooth.

BRING IT TO A MEET SOON !!!!!!!!!

yer, dont get the spoiler, bit to choppy, id like to see a nice irmskurrrrrrrrrrrr front grill on her though

Noooooo, keep the colour coded VXR grille, its a VXR symbol.

wouldnt bother with the spoiler or diff grill as both them area's are sound, would maybe just lower it a lil further than the standard ride hight, 30mm all round, and window tints from the b pillars back - think the rest looks great

very nice car u ave there fella i agree wid davy tho the spoiler option looks to much for the back and the front is great just the window tints and lowerin to 30mm then it will be fine

body work stayin as it is, dont think there is any need to alter anything on it....

i agree why do anything to it at all its got the bhp the looks so why add anything else

Very nice and VERY fast

this car is superb mate, stunnin looking cars vxr's i would keep it standard mate vauxhall have done all the work already. they aint half makin some nice cars now

hoping to get the interior lights back in this week while on nights, and at least fit the undercar tubes under the body...

Lol we will be able to have a disco at the meets again hehe!

you know it matey... whoop whoop...

apparently the suspension set up is already quite low, and due to the 19's on it i could only lower it about another 15mm which in my eyes is not enough to show a real difference...

Id leave it as it is mate tbh, Vaux have spent lot of money and time getting the setup right and unless there is something you feel you drastically want to change, it will probably be tuned to make best use of the current available power already.

When you get a chip or whatever it is you are planning, then maybe you have to consider changing the setup to account for the increase in power.

Besides, it looks low enough to me... and I would love to see 99% of people with rediculously low cars try to take you on in it

not gonna do it matt, just replyin to an earlier post... as for people tryin to take me on, had 2 young lads in a silver 1.2 corsa tryin to bait me at the lights at asda the other day.. sooooooooo funny he was revvin it and revvin it, so i just blipped the throttle and the v6 roared... the driver just gave a "oh shit" kinda look and sank down in his seat and never bothered tryin... lol

Haha quality, I can just picture it

Oh and quote of the day has to go to my mate: "You seen my new backbox, its well fast"... drives a little white 1.1 or 1.2 Corsa B haha! He's exactly the type of lad who would have a go haha!

My dad loves coming up here in his Alfa for that reason, gets all the scallys as he still calls them, squaring up with him at the lights against his big old 164 just because it has the Quadrifoglio kit on it and looks a bit fast in their little corsas and fiesta etc... and he just drives off calmly, leaving them behind, whilst they are ragging their engine to bits trying to catch him.

What is this again, 280bhp? Jeeze I bet you have fun with chavs haha!

yup 280 bhp really smooth delivery of that power, and no lag that i've experienced due to the twin scroll turbo....would explain that to you but would take me too long to try and remember it so think i'd be best postin up the info tomorrow...lol

Haha very nice mate, turbo sounds er a bit complicated, but its how well its working is all that matters!!

I bet its a whole new world coming from the old Veccy?

yeh totally different mate, but i still do miss the sri.....

Holy crap!

Nice car jonah, didn`t even know these existed.

Lmao Ste, wherever have you been for the past few years?? You are just too old skool I guess!!
