[Lewisfirth]

Firstly i'm new 😁 Owned a corsa vxr for 5 years then an astra vxr Nurburgring for 2, i sold my astra about 2month ago and now i'v the bug for a new car. Idealy i want a vxr8 and i have seen this: http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/2015... does anybkdy know this car? Also what are the common issues i should be looking out for when going to view VXR8s? I'm from Leeds so when i finally see one i want and is in budget i'll be looking to attend meets ect that are local to me

Thanks in advance Lewis

I don't recognise the car, but if you ask the seller for the build number (on the build plate under the bonnet) you might be lucky and be able to find the previous owner using the build register below. The build plate is visible at the bottom right on the picture showing the engine bay but it's too small to read the numbers.

Regarding common issues and buying advice, the thread below was put together a while back for this purpose and might be useful to you
