Looking at the new corsa VXR and i am sure when they first came out a magazine (redline?) said they had an ATB diff as standard so they handled really well because of it. however they dont mention it on the website.

am i going mad? did they ever have one? concept? :confused: :tard:

indeed, the std vxr has no lsd, the vxr-r does.

Vauxhall really ought to offer this as an option from the dealer IMO. The liklihood of more, better handling models on the road, would mean a better reputation for handling prowess would be earned amongst the press & industry etc. Then vauxhall would get the 'best in class' award in group thrashes etc.

VXR..R? lol the normal VXR isn't good enough so they had to add an extra R?
