That definitely should happen! It's already a turbo six, so the Insignia VXR has some tenuous links to the Carlton.

Yeah, that whole intro from the recreations of historic events and the song choice is fantastic.

Hey don't worry about it, the SW accent can just as easily be lumped into Cornish, Janner, Bristolian etc regardless of where you're from.

They have sold here for at least 20 years. I see a sweet Unlimited on proper off-road tyres every now and then. It looks epic.

There is an R&D centre here, because Vauxhalls often get UK specific tuning. Besides which, at least Vauxhall make cars here.

Shame the dark blue Mk.3 Astra GSI wasn't in red. That's one of my all-time favourite hot hatches. 150bhp in 1993 was not to be sniffed at.

I think the real sweet spot for enthusiasts is yet to exist, if ever; the Clubsport. Take the RWD GTS goodies such as Powerkit and Sport Chrono, fit the lightest GT3 seats trimmed in cloth and cover the touch points in alcantara, but put it inside the narrow body and add some side graphics. Remove the stereo and AC

It's play worn, but I most definitely will. I've collected models for most of my 29 years so finding the genesis of it all was amazing for me.

The 5-spoke wheels as seen on the yellow car were used by Rockstar for the Maibatsu Monstrosity in GTA III.

Damn that great underachiever Ralph Lauren with all of those used cars in his collection.

I found mine in the attic last week.

Using that logic you think BMW would offer a naturally aspirated six from their M Performance parts for those who want 'classic' BMW, but they don't. I'm one person who isn't going to buy a new BMW now they're all turbos.

From the dorky looking member of the 996 and 997 families, to the wide, curvaceous beauty of the 991 family. It looks stunning now.

The Hellcat is quite literally, 'the shit'. I had no interest in the Challenger until this beast.

I don't know where the field is, but a black one with these wheels was outside my workplace two Saturdays ago and my part of England has plenty of fields and estates.

Shame picture posting is off, but a local dealership had a Civic Tourer outside the supermarket across the road recently, liveried like the BTCC. Was pretty neat.

Enzo is famously autocratic, the last twenty years strike me as exactly what he'd have wanted from his company.

I was there this time 20 years ago, boy that bus is positively cutting edge. Our first day from the airport to the hotel in St Paul's Bay was on an old English bus from the fifties and we saw the aftermath of a serious crash within minutes on the road.

We don't get these in the UK, but that is a really sweet looking Civic.

It already has been. Autocar put the latest M5 fifth of five in a test of the new Vauxhall VXR8 GTS - which won. The E63, XFR-S and RS6 all beat out the M5 with Competition Pack.
