Vauxhall VXR8 2007 posters


Vauxhall VXR8

Motoring fanatics all around Britain felt sad when Monaro ended its operations. Many appreciated the raw and gritty performance by the 6.0-litre V8 and rear-wheel drive set up of this only Australian-built car available in UK. Fortunately, Vauxhall has decided to take over the legacy of Aussie musclecar in the form of its VXR8. This new saloon is more powerful and excitable than the iconic Monaro and is equipped with the same 6.0-litre V8 engine but with further enhancements, delivering an impressive 420PS and 550Nm of torque. Its immense power enables it to clock up the 0-60mph in an astonishing 4.9 seconds. As compared to other supercars with almost identical performance, VXR8 is a much cheaper option. It isn't all about the performance though, the VXR8 also provides supreme practicality with four doors and enough room to accommodate the family. The boot is large and luggage-friendly, while there's a comfortable long-range ability and features like climate control and leather trim to enjoy. When it comes to safety, VXR8 has on-board stability and traction control, both of which can be turned off for those keen drivers willing to get their hands dirty on a track day. The car also features more muscular brakes, allowing it to reach a standstill from 60 mph much faster than a Lamborghini Murcielago or BMW M5. To meet customer expectations, VXR8 will be available with an optional automatic gearbox that has a sport setting and manual override to safeguard its power. Other extra features include satellite navigation, 20-inch wheels and stylish body graphics. Although these are not a necessity, they do give the car an exceptionally distinct look. Thanks to the impressive specs and low price, VXR8 definitely lives up to the Aussie standard!
