A wee bit late notice but I have a Astra VXR on test drive over the weekend, I would be more than happy to meet up with anyone that wants to have a
look / passenger ride and for me to do the same with your kit car.
If interested phone or text me on 07894 784374
PS I live in Burton on Trent so you will have to live fairly close.

went round croft on a vxr day in a monaro vxr and an astra the monaro was amazing in a straight line but could only manage three laps at one go as
the brakes were cooked the vxr based on the vx220 was amazing went past everything else round croft with a proffesional driver at the helm and the
astra was really suprising for a front wheel drive car there was lots of grip shame i dont live nearer love taking folk out and giving them a quick
scare theres only the brother in law left in the family that will go out with me now good luck with your search hope you have a good day messing about
in cars you lucky bugger

You could always give the VXR Vectra a proper test drive by booking a track day
Most track days have kit cars attending so you could blag a ride in one at the same time!

If i had to choose, i wouldnt buy a vauxhall 
Im sure its different now but weve had issues with them in the past
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

I'm no "wus" but really not too sure about the suggestion of talking the Vectra VXR on track, sounds good in prinicple which its
just the "what if" effect, different if it was my own car (rather than it being a weekend test drive).
