My New VXR (Holden content)

[leeds_182]

As opposed to Renault's? I'm not sure we're really in a position to talk

Plus it’s only a Vauxhall badge. The rest of the car is a Holden. I’m not sure that’s much better...

I haven’t had a Renault for a few years [emoji106]

Even so - I think everyone hates a Vauxhall, name an owner that doesn’t have to justify owning one??

[massivewangers]

They've sold thousands of them, so I would think there are plenty out there that wouldn't feel the need to justify them.

I would have a Nova SR over a 205 I think. The 205 is better, but the Nova just has something about it.

 

[bill]

The 205 gti is in a different league completely.

 

[Crybert]

The standard insignias, vectras, astras are fairly poop but the hot versions are decent.

I'm sure, but they don't do a lot for me for some reason. Much prefer the later stuff. Phase 1 106 Rallye would be much higher up my list than a 205.

I've always wanted a tuned up Nova or a Mk1 Corsa, I'll get one one day. Probably something boring looking, but a sleeper or a subtle one.

 

[Cookson]

Used to love my NovaVan

The Nova was a Mk1 Corsa?

 

[Daz...]

The Nova was a Mk1 Corsa?

It was everywhere but here.

The Corsa B looked so soft in comparison though.

I sold it for 13k.

Most performance cars seem to be up in value at the moment so I wouldnt sweat too much.

He bought it for 11.8k believe it or not. He’s spent a few quid on it mind.

Tbey Apparently do pretty big mileage the LS so that’s a proper bargain.

I think I’d rather have one over a low mileage cup.

 

[_Tom]

That mileage wouldn’t give me any concerns with the engine. The rest of it, maybe.

But then I’ve had some leggy motors in the past so kind of blind to it now. As long as they’ve been looked after.

I’ve got one lump that I barely drive (because I don’t want to tax it... £590 ) I don’t need two!

The £590 was difficult to stomach.

Strange I don’t mind taxing 2 volvos, an Audi and a van which cost me about a grand a year!
