A CAR THAT TRANSCENDS EVERYDAY EXPECTATIONSA CAR THAT TRANSCENDS EVERYDAY EXPECTATIONS

What's your definition of a good car? One that looks a million dollars, goes well and has the capacity to entertain, even when you're on the Friday night chip-shop run? Words by Mike Askew, pictures by Vauxhall

The rounded edges of the Monaro have been replaced by the VXR8's taut lines and aggressive cut-outs. A subtle spoiler spans the boot lid while brake cooling vents set behind the massive 19- inch front wheels are colour-coded to blend in with the overall styling theme. It's also packed with delightful details such as the massive VXR branded brake calipers and the beautiful Afterburners LED tail lamp clusters that make the car unmistakable at night. With (excellent) seats for five, it's one of those cars that your head and your heart will agree on.

So there you have it - the VXR DNA is evolving into something truly special. If you're looking to rekindle your love affair with driving, there's only one solution. Get out there and try one. After all, you have been awfully good this year.
