Nice, they sound pretty fruity for an astra.

I didn't realise they were making that many of this edition! I do love a nice Astra VXR mind. So uncouth.

A friend of mine has a regular Astra VXR, it will shred tyres if you are club footed with it and the understeer is not as bad as some make out. I can imagine if you entered a corner too hot, and pressed the throttle in too hard, creating wheel spin as you turn in, that could be pretty scary!
