    Default Vauxhall Heritage Museum

    Thought id share some pics of my trip to the Vauxhall Heritage Museum in Luton. It was open as part of a Piston Heads Sunday Service meet.

    The morning was topped off when whilst having a look around a Swindow Reverse Head C20XE, Andrew Duerden, who as many of you know played a big part in the Nova Sport approached me and my dad and starting chating with us. A very interesting and knowledgable guy.

    To Any one who gets a chance to visit the museum, id highly recommend it. Any way heres some pics.



















    This astra is quite a car, 2.3 supercharged 4 wheel Drive

    It's not open to the public, only opens for organised events.

    The Astra GTE was originally privately owned by a guy in York - remember it from years ago.

    I am told when he advertised it for sale, Vauxhall Heritage purchased it.
