The Astra VXR Nürburgring Edition was introduced by Vauxhall as a limited production version of its performance hatchback, featuring chassis and styling enhancements inspired by the famous German circuit

Powered by Vauxhall’s turbocharged 2-litre 4-cylinder with an upgraded Remus exhaust system offering 240bhp paired with a manual gearbox, delivering the strong front-wheel drive performance for which the VXR models are well known
Supplied new by Archie Moss Vauxhall of Leicestershire in October 2008, the car is accompanied by its original service book showing servicing up to 42, 645 miles, whilst the V5C records six former keepers
