Hi folks,
Seriously considering moving to the Astra VXR .... I've seen some posts on here which suggest that fuel consumption isn't great ... trust me after the RX8 even 25MPG would be a major improvement.
And a litre of oil every 3 or 4 fuel fills makes a 3000 mile oil-change seem very cost-effective
So my question: Have any of you moved from a rear-wheel drive car to the VXR's front wheel drive, and is torque steer a problem? I have heard mixed messages and it seems Vauxhall have applied some jiggery-pokery which has minimised the effect.
Test drive next week ... quite excited at the prospect!
Thanks
Matt
