"looks with bold his muscle car correspond personality, the Vauxhall is to get VXR8 as raw as a modern high-performance sedans."
Powered by a 6.2-liter V8 petrol engine is the VXR8 power not too short. With bold its muscle-car looks match personality of Vauxhall's VXR8 get as raw as modern performance saloons. It only takes just 4.2 seconds from 0-62mph to go and has a top speed of 155mph. Poor fuel efficiency and a high insurance rating means operating costs are very high, but this has always been the case with the VXR8 been.
The steering is precise, handling is direct it very convenient drives for such a fast car. Inside cabin quality better than ever, but the VXR8 is still a long way behind its European rivals here. At £ 50,000, the latest version is not the low-cost alternative to a BMW M5 his predecessor, but it still is good value if you are looking for a comfortable, spacious and very quickly Salon.

expensive to have the return of less than 20mpg, which is not a cheap car VXR8

Serious fun to drive, the VXR8 delivers plenty of power and excellent handling for such a big car has
the VXR8 the 6.2-liter V8 engine 425bhp and takes just 4.2 seconds the car from 0-62mph speed. The car handles better than ever, and you simply will not believe how fast can acclerate at high speeds. The steering is weighted precisely and beautifully, while the current VXR8 the largest brakes ever has a roadworthy Vauxhall equipped, so you can keep all this power safely at bay if needed.
The six-speed automatic transmission provides reasonably smooth changes in the auto mode, still reacts keen on the steering wheel paddles. Low speed response ins't as sharp as the manual car, such as the automatic transmission, the initial acceleration

The VXR8 is very spacious and very comfortable for a high-performance car
How or not, the Vauxhall VXR8 the V8 engine is seriously loud. Resonators in the cabin, it can be a bit noisy, even if you along in sixth gear are cruising. It's a little wind noise and the large tires create a fair amount of road noise, too, but it's the least you would expect from a powerful muscle car. Refinement aside, the VXR8 extremely spacious and very comfortable for such a high-performance car.

Only very few fast cars offer as much space as the VXR8
There are very few fast cars that offer as much space as the VXR8. With more than enough legroom and headroom five large seats for adults who VXR8 is really one of a kind in this class. The boot is as big as a regular family sedan well.

The latest VXR8 is still the most reliable
Vauxhall reliability in recent years, and the latest version of the VXR8 been has been improving the best record ever. Interior quality is better than ever, even though the VXR8 still feels a bit cheaper inside than rivals from Audi and BMW. However, it still sees and feels good and is a very solid effort all round.

you get a lot of car for your £ 50,000 with the VXR8
with its 6.2-liter V8 engine, a chassis that better is capable than ever and huge amounts of character, the VXR8 is a lot of car for £ 50,000. It is unlikely, used on the buyer to a powerful Audi, BMW or Mercedes to win, but it's the perfect choice for those who want to make a statement and prefer not to run with the crowd.
