Great day out with the club. As you will see another great stand at the show.
Welcome to Astra J VXR Owners Club. These are the biggest Astra J VXR meets in the UK and possibly the world. No where else will you experience so many in one place at one time. You will see all the different colours, individual styles and many modifications whether styling or tuning. Meet new friends with the same interests and discover new knowledge and ideas about your VXR.
If you have a VXR and would like to join and attend shows across the country please contact Ryan @Northhound5 @Scotts_golf on UA-cam or comment in the video.

Honestly amazing seeing so many of these gorgeous cars in one place at one time, thanks for the vids man.
@@sixstringedthing Thanks. Glad you enjoy. Hopefully many more videos to come. 👍👍
Finally picked mine up today, Astra J OPC in Arden blue with Aero pack. I came from an 1.3 non turbo car to this, It's hard to describe the feeling but whenever I get out of the car I shiver because of the sheer power and adrenaline. It's without a doubt a beast of a machine. Plus here where I'm from the car is rarely seen on the road, so I had so many eyes on me to the point where I just felt a bit uncomfortable but I guess it's something I need to get used to.
@@gideonjs5000 They are absolute Beasts. Look after them. They are rare and lovely to drive
Amazing video mate. Great day out
Awesome as usual 👍🏆
Great video buddy 👏👍
Thankyou Mate 👍👍📸
What a beautiful site..... 🥵😫😍 been wanting one for 6 years but recently i've never been so tempted... would love one of the emerald green ones
@@FishingwithMattUK I would recommend. You can a good one they really are a great exciting drive. Emerald greens are rare. There is only one chap normally at the meets in that colour 🏆
@@vxrhearing of all the engine problems is scary haha! I'd only want a standard one but would want one with heated seats etc not a bad spec car!
The problem with going on the forums is hearing all the problems. But obviously you don't hear from the people that run fine. If you mapping beyond 310 yes I would say forge the pistons. Piston 3 known to blow. VVT Solenoids a common issue. I take mine to WG Motorworks. Get full service and Gearbox oil change annually to make sure no sound when full lock or at slow speed. If you get one make sure the history is good. Thing is people rag these cars and change the standard spec then say they break easy. You wouldn't do that to a normal car.
@@vxrnice one mate I appreciate the info. Do you know how much the full service is down there? If I did buy one I would probably take it straight down there to be "inspected"
@@FishingwithMattUK Hey. You can do general health checks down there. 60 quid I think. If I remember correctly full Main service is 270. Warren does brake fluid and everything. Plus to be honest it is a one on one service. You can talk to him about what he sees. Not just throwing it in a garage, in and out like a conveyor belt. Additionally the gearbox oil complete change 70-80 but absolutely a must.
Astra j GTC ❤️❤️ really beautiful car. Best regards !
Thankyou. Will be creating feature videos on some members cars soon. Showing what safe mods and styling can be done
great vid.. good to see my car on another video :D
Which one did I capture
as a new owner of a j vxr i often wonder if im the only person that has the non aero pack styling i prefer the spoiler on mine weirdly it seems im the only one! :)
also thanks for waking me up early morning driving past my house i heard everyone of them as i live on the main road towards santa pod! haha
We do have a member of the Club that has no Aero Pack. Spoiler and Side Skirts. You must love being near that main road.
I’m on the look out for one of these here in Australia anything to look out for when buying. Currently dailying a focus rs mk2 so I no what the fuel will be like 😆. Are these a harsh ride ? Cheers
Hey. I think they are Holden in Australia. When in VXR/OPC Mode the ride is stiff. When in normal mode they are fine. 38mpg motorway. 22mpg in town. 280bhp but can be stage 1 for 310bhp. Love them myself. Not been in an RS so could not compare personally.
@@vxr thanks mate yes Holden here. It will be a daily so I can put the RS Away that gets 10.5litres per a 100ks I think the vxr is worse but worth it if a fun daily car I think. They certainly look good
@@adyg8221 They are a very enjoyable drive. Look after them and they will look after you. 🏆
all the k owners like me with the top end 1.6! t...we wish they had made a k vxr. if they did ..i wouldn't own the 1.6t 😞 very disappointed in this engine.
@@andrewwright. It is a shame that the VXR brand was not continued. It is a nightmare trying to get hold of parts for a J VXR also now days.
