Vauxhall VXR8 (2007 - 2009) 6.2i V8 4d Owner Review

In their own words
Utterly brilliant car. Big V8, manual gearbox and your right foot, that's it! Great fun and totally reliable. Had this car for over 10 years now and it still feels great to drive. Australian cars are built to a different spec when compared to Euro cars and whilst mine is still on a relatively low mileage, don't be put off by higher mileage examples as it's what these cars are designed for. Once you get passed the no frills aproach, they are brlliant at what they do. So reminiscent of old school muscle cars but done right!
How reliable do you find the car?
A few small issues came up on it's first MoT which were easily rectified on the day. No issues since!Does the car do everything you expected it to do?
That V8 growl still makes me smile every time I start the car. Newer tyre technology has transformed the handling. It was good on the original tyres but now on brand new tyres it's great. On a motorway the car can get high 30's mpgAbout their car
