Vauxhall Corsa VXR

[Chris Jay]

Hi all, just joined the forums and thought I'd post up a few pics of my current car. It's a 2008 Corsa VXR, not everybody's cup of tea, but I like it!

Had the car from new and have managed to keep it in top condition considering it's a daily driver. Started doing a few car shows with it over the last couple of years and have picked up a concours trophy so far.

Anyway here's the pics;

Looks absolutely immaculate for an 08 plate! Very very nice

You've done yourself proud. Not over the top, just great attention to detail

Hmmmmmm. In the nicest possible way, that has been "tarted up" very nicely. I like.

Thanks for the comments! I have tried to subtly mod it without chavving it.

I really do like the VXR. Only thing that puts me off is theres a guy on my street that has a blue one with black carbon bonnet! Its a single lane 30mph estate and he thrashes it like hes at the Ring. Its literally a matter of time before he has a big one with a kid or a car door.

Anyways.....nice car OP.

That is pretty much what I wanted to say. Well held back OP, its so easy to go OTT with the mods but you have got it just right.

Lovely mate - where'd you get the front spoiler/splitter? I'd quite like one

Cheers, I got the splitter from a Vauxhall dealer on Ebay for £45 just before Vauxhall put the price up to £180!

Really nice looking car. These also sound great with a fruity exhaust on them. I hate the interior, but I think the exterior looks is fantastic, the VXR team should be applauded for turning such an ugly base model into such a cool and cohesive looking car. Far better than the slightly lacklustre luck of the Astra VXR.

I have never really been a massive fan of these, but all credit to you OP, that looks a cracker.

The red and silvery grey colour is the best colours for them too.
