...Using the stop clock on the onboard computer, got...
6.8
6.7
6.9
6.9
All of those times I started the stop clock then started moving and didn't stop the clock until the speedo read 65mph.

Book to 100mph is supposed to be 18secs so I'd guess at about 17.5

Vauxhall book time for the Coupé is 7 seconds. That is based on an average 0-60mph times over numerous runs. I use optimax as well. 
I've seen a few mags that have stated the coupé to do 60mph in 6.8secs.
