STORY

The VXR8 was Vauxhall's V8 super-saloon flagship, imported from Australia and based on the Holden Commodore (HSV) from 2007. Powered by GM LS-series V8s producing well over 400 bhp, it offered muscle-car pace with four-door practicality. The final VXR8 GTS from 2013 used a supercharged 6.2-litre LSA V8, making it one of the most powerful Vauxhalls ever. Holden production ceased in 2017.
