The Limited Edition Vauxhall Corsa VXR and Vauxhall Astra VXR

Known as the Vauxhall Corsa and Astra VX Racing Editions, they will have a combined production run of 888 cars. And that number just happens to coincide with the name of Vauxhall's race experts, Triple Eight Engineering, who build and prepare all the VX Racing Cars and contributed so much to Vauxhall's triumph in the BTCC last season when it won the BTCC's Drivers&', Manufacturers' and Team championships.

As well as sharing the VX Racing team colours of red and black, all VX Racing Editions gain full leather Recaro seats as standard. The VX Racing theme continues outside the car with logos on the B-posts and tread plates, too.

And just to make sure that you'd never mistake a VX Racing Edition from an 'ordinary' Vauxhall Corsa or Astra VXR, tinted rear glass, a black rear diffuser and black side bump strips and door mirror covers are all part of the package. In addition, the Astra version gains Piano Black interior decor strips.

We're also sure that VX Racing's drivers, Giovanardi, Neal and Jordan would appreciate the gloss-black alloy wheels - 18" for the Vauxhall Corsa, 19" for the Vauxhall Astra - that come as standard on all VX Racing Editions.

Finally, for that authentic VX Racing soundtrack - as well as up to 20PS extra power - all VX Racing Edition buyers will have the option of purchasing a Remus exhaust system at a discounted price. For Vauxhall Astras, that means £720 (saving £275) and for Vauxhall Corsas, £410 (saving £150). Buyers will also benefit from a healthy discount on other Vauxhall Performance Centre parts and accessories.
