I agree about the 5-drs looking better.

The VXR is the only model that pulls the Sporthatch shape off IMO

Oh, and that VXR Bumpered 5-dr on the previous page is proper cool...

The VXR doesn't look that much different shape wise than a Sports Hatch with XP. Just different bumpers and wheels etc. The overall shape isn't changed at all.

How is a Diesel Astra comparable to a 3.2l Golf?

I'd rather have a Ferrari Enzo.

Ben - I've got that Irmscher grill. I think I prefer the standard grill though.

My plans are:

Glovebox cooler mod
Eco3 tuning box
BK999's
Xenons

Looking back I prefer the standard grill but loved it at the time. It was a Steinmetz one btw.

I did the glovebox cooler mod, but it wasn't that great.

Great car, great engine. I loved mine. IMO the 5 door looks way better than the Sporthatch (apart from VXR), especially with XP kit on it.

With a tuning box on mine was really quick, and obviously loads of torque too. But still great MPG. I think a boxed CDTI150 is nearly as quick as a standard VXR.

I'd definatly reccomend getting a box and dropping it on Eibachs too.

So it is...sorry was looking at that pic on my iPhone earlier. Mine looks similar only the grill on mine matches the lower grill...same size/shape grid if you know what I mean...

Oh forgot to add to my list...Cruise Control.

I think with the H and especially the XP models Vauxhall nailed it in terms of styling. They look great.

Yep...I still see the 5 door XP's around now and think....fuck that looks great.

Just thinking how easy those wheels must have been to clean compared to the VXR ones!!!

I never said the VXR did look a different shape to a normal Sporthatch - I said it pulls it off best.

A Sporthatch SRi XP, IMO, doesn't look as good as the 5-dr variant...

Back was debadged until 2 seconds before they pictures.

It also had VXR springs on it briefly which lowered it a nice amount, don't think I got any pics though

You can have it for 10k, it's in as good condition as it looks there.
