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??

[massiveCoRbyn]

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.

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.

"couldn’t get it washed as car washes closed due to lockdown !! " **Shudder**

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!
