VXR 2010 spec

[bertxuk]

Hi all, long time no see!

I currently have a 2009 VXR, arden blue, s&l and 18s.

Some questions please:

1. Is there any differences for the 2010 spec Corsa VXR compared to 2009?
2. I noticed on the Vx site that the co2 emissions rating has dropped from 190gms to 172gms, offering a saving on VED. How has Vx achieved this? Has it affected power, torque and performance?
3. Has anyone got any nice pics of an inside with the full leather option? I presume that this option = full leather matching front and rear, inc rear headrests?

Cheers

For leather seats try this pic (from a pistonhead classified advert) pic 9

The performance hasn't altered at all from pre 2010 --- 192 hp / 230 N·m --- to the 2010 Spec --- 192 hp / 230 N·m


achieved through optimizing the engine calibration for 98 RON (OPC) fuel. The average fuel consumption is now lowered by 9.5% to 7.3 L/100 km (32 mpg US) with CO2 emissions 172 g/km on the OPC.


Co level means car tax will only be £175 now rather than £215

Hope this helped

ALso vxr now uses less fuel - according to vauxhall website now does 38.7 mpg - and as others have said cheaper car tax now too! Where do I sign!? :D Use to be 35.8 mpg
