The 2007 VXR Racing Driver of the Year winner, John Allison, secured a podium finish in his second-only race meeting since winning a competition to become a professional racing driver.

VX Racing returns to Thruxton which has brought the team great glory in recent years for rounds ten, 11 and 12 of the 2008 HiQ MSA British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) on Sunday 18 May, where the team clinched the BTCC Drivers’ and Manufacturers’ Championship last year in a thrilling season finale.

With spring absent this year, there’s no better car than the Astra TwinTop to deal with a mix of weather conditions, be they sub-zero or near-Sahara. And now there are two new models, the Exclusiv and Exclusiv XP, bringing added style and panache to the four-seater convertible range.

The VXR Racing Driver of the Year, John Allison, is preparing for his second ever race meeting in the Dunlop Sport Maxx Cup at Pembrey, Wales, this weekend, following his outstanding debut as a professional racing driver at Snetterton in April.

Are you stuck in a rut and not enjoying your current job? Is life catching up with you and you want to achieve bigger and better things?

Donington Park’s podium belonged to champions VX Racing for rounds seven, eight and nine of the 2008 HiQ MSA British Touring Car Championship (BTCC), with the team claiming one victory, two second and two third positions throughout the day.

The world’s biggest private collection of classic Vauxhalls is to throw its doors open to the public for one day only, and for 2008 we’ll also be celebrating 10 million Astra sales since the model first appeared in 1980.

Vauxhall’s mighty VXR8 super-saloon gets a potent new V8 engine this summer, with even more power and improved performance.

If you’ve ever dreamed of a career as a racing driver, but feel your current course is unlikely to steer you in that direction, Vauxhall’s VXR Racing Driver of the Year 2008 competition could be just what you’re looking for.

When a new car comes along with such attention grabbing style as the latest Vauxhall Agila, there may seem little scope for improvement. That is not how the aftersales experts at Vauxhall see it.
