I honestly don't understand why Vauxhall go to the trouble of building a "sports" brand like VXR with heavy investment in racing and advertising then just as it starts to show promise...
prove to the world its meaningless marketing rubbish by releasing a people carrier verison.
Instant brand credibility implosion.

I used to have a Zafira GSi and have to say if you need the occasional 7 seats they are unbeatable in terms of practicality and fun factor so good on you
If you don't need the 7 seats then you should have got a Forester

I for like like the idea behind the Zafira GSi/VXR's. Some people need 7 seats but still want something quick/sporty.... what is there... nothing, apart from these.
To be fair, even if I didn't need 7 seats and needed a bit of extra space, I would get one, I like them, I like what Vauxhall have done in terms of the VXR range, good on them.
Anyway, enjoy your new motor mate, I am sure you will.
What colour did you get...?

Strangley enough had to shift some kit so borrowed a colleagues VXR Zafira to drive it the 10miles, instead of using my AMG.
In that short drive I actually thought it was good fun and an ideal for a people carrier / load lugger. It stood out more the the average carrier, and handled well.
Seems Vauxhall have aimed it at a marketplace and added something extra to a normal range of carriers. Now how can we criticise a company that at least trys to add some fun into its range.
Well done m8

They should have done a Corsa VXR to rival the 182 etc.

Steppers,
You are one lucky person! I have an 03 GSi Zafira. Love it to bits as I do my WRX RA and my Golf GTi.
I like the look on car drivers faces when they are left behind by a people carrier
Would like to know how you get on with it and all the best and safe driving....
John

Shame they couldn't shoehorn in the 1.8 turbo from the Astra SRi though!

Not on really now is it, hold your hands up and admit you were being a tosser.
Nice car mate, looks great in the blue colour. Its probably what i would go for if i needed 7 seats.
It must be a real blast on the m-way.

This is different, someone posted saying they are getting a new car, and is anyone else getting one, they did not mention any other car, or views on any other car, they did not even express their opinion on their own car....... so there was nothing to agree/disagree with.
There was no point taking the pi$$ and was uncalled for.

I feel for you sgcooby.....
Your reply to the opening post was the kind of sarcastic and light hearted humourous response I'd probably have come up with myself and to see folk (steppers et all) over-reacting and calling you a bunch of names is laughably childish IMO.
Can't folk on this damn bbs take a joke ffs
Or have you upset them all on another thread and this is the backlash?
