STORY

The Vauxhall Monaro was a rebadged Holden Monaro coupe imported from Australia between 2004 and 2007, part of GM's strategy to give Vauxhall a rear-drive V8 flagship car. Powered by GM's LS-series V8, it delivered muscle-car performance in a practical two-door body. It was the forerunner of the later VXR8 saloon and is still liked by British enthusiasts.
