5th Gear did a comparison on track

That's the Monaro, which is quite a different car to the VXR8, despite some shared mechanicals. I was initially thinking of getting a Monaro, but I test drove one and it's surprisingly small inside (cabin and the boot). It's not really a proper family car in the way that the 260 & VXR8 are. The Monaro & VXR8 are often referred to jokingly as the Calibra & Vectra.

VBH did a review of the VXR8 here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiW8QHq0yUI

Good luck Stephen,...a natural successor to the Zed I think,and would certainly be my choice over any other sports saloon should I change.

Well if you should wish to change at some point, please let me know as my first choice would be a supercharged Mk1 ZT or ZTT in blue!

That will teach me and just shows how little I know about them. I thought they were the same car.
