Vauxhall Corsa VXR news - 'Kit on the side

Like an amphetamine-fuelled Jack Russell, the new Corsa VXR is lairily busting its way into UK showrooms this month.

If you like the styling of Vauxhall's angry little hot hatch but aren't so keen on all that power - or, more likely, the insurance bill - you can now get an official VXR bodykit for the garden Corsa.

The kit comprises a front lower spoiler, rear roof spoiler, side sills and rear lower skirt. Vauxhall will supply and fit the kit to match body colour.

Such classy styling doesn't come cheap, though - the full bodykit treatment will set you back £1249, plus another £391 for a set of shiny 14-inch alloys.
