erm... i opels are in ireland, and funnily enough they are right hand drive  opel is more commonly found all over europe, where as vaux only have vaux showrooms in the uk no difference other than the badge. vaux is far more interesting, lookin at a griffin, instead of a over stretched Z lol

Vauxhall is British, which is part of the Opel group, which is part of the GM group, which is American...... Which also own other brands (think it might be Daewoo or Proton or something, can't remember, and don't forget Holden).

So part of the Vauxhalls are American 
All my engine parts say made in germany 
Dident vauxhall join with opel in 1948 just after the war they make the same cars with a different badge 
Its like the Mazda 121 and the ford fessy look 100% the same but different badge

Topshot, read my previous reply...
Standard engine, whats som funny? Datron timed at a Corsa Vs Saxo day in 2001.
Sunz, nope, its a sub company, os GM won't have that much to do with the overall design and build of european cars. But fundimentally, they own or part own the whole group.
Bit like Ford have shares in Volvo, Aston Martin, Jaguar etc...

Im not arguning that you ran a 9.5 on a modded 1.4 but 7-8 secs in a 1.4 He's a complete joker. expecially if he thinks he can beat vts and 106 gti. they would wipe the floow both in straight line and corners.
