Description

Vauxhall Astra VXR - Fully Forged Engine - 356 BHP - Extensive Build - Less Than 15,000 Miles Since Rebuild Reluctantly selling my Astra VXR due to it no longer being practical for my needs. This is not your average VXR - it has had a huge amount of time, money, and attention invested into it over the years, with over 20,000 worth of receipts and paperwork to back up the build. The car benefits from a fully rebuilt and forged engine, which has covered less than 15,000 miles since completion. It is currently producing 356 BHP with dyno proof, with the setup capable of supporting more power with larger injectors and turbo upgrades if desired. The car has been meticulously maintained and wants for nothing. It starts, runs, and drives perfectly with no faults and has never let me down.

The previous and current owners have maintained it to a very high standard, and it remains one of the cleanest and strongest examples available. Comes with a substantial history file containing receipts and documentation covering the build and maintenance work carried out throughout its life. A genuine, well-sorted VXR that drives exceptionally well and is ready to be enjoyed Car has also recently had new pads all round and is stripped in the back as I was about to get a roll cage to fully start tracking the car however recently having a baby this ain't the most practical car ( I do have the back seats and interior parts )
