They sure are, Speedline Corse is the name.

Cracking VXR! Do have plans for it or will it be left as is?

Hey why not come to the VX220 National trackday in June and get out with 50 other VX's...? Will be a great day and I can get you a slot thumbsup

Car looks great by the way!!! I test drove that one when I was looking for a VX but decided against it as it needed work! All looks sorted now though, and the paintwork looks amazing!!!!!

Allright Jimmy, the only thing that puts me off the national is that its miles away from me, like 3 hours! What work needed doing to the car? It had a front end respray when I bought it and Iv waxed it all with auto glym high defeition wax, ies a really nice deep shine, requires a lot of elbow grease bt i dont mind, i love just looking at the car its beautiful!

I think the average journey time last year was 6+ hours - 3 hours away, that's on your doorstep :lol:

The turbo was fubared when I looked at it. Absolutely no boost! There were a few other things wrong with it but nothing some tlc (and some cash) wouldn't put right. It went back to Vauxhall so they obviously did a number on it :lol:

3hrs is nothing to the national, dont be poof

I'm travelling 4hrs from South Wales!!! Go on, it will be an awesome day, and you'll get to see some pretty special VX's!

National is £210 for The Coastal circuit which is one of the best tracks in the country!!!!!!!! Cheap for a summer date!! It will be an awesome day, and you'll get the chance to put yourself up against MAXR's superlight superpowerful VX amonng many others :)
