The Vauxhall Corsa VXR (known in Europe as the Opel Corsa OPC) is one fun car to drive and the guys from Opel thought to make it even cooler, by creating the Vauxhall Corsa VXR Arctic Edition, which will debut next week at the British Motor Show in London. But don’t expect the car to be a Corsa fitted for North Pole expeditions, because the name comes from the special Glacier White paintwork.
Available in only 500 units, the car is fitted with a Remus Sports exhaust which increases the 1.6 liter turbocharged engine’s power output by 15 hp, so the Arctic Edition develops a total of 207 hp. This, combined with the dark tinted rear windows, the black roof and side mirrors and the new 18 inch V-spoke alloy wheels, make the Vauxhall Corsa VXR Arctic Edition a really good deal for the £16,995 (around $34,000, £995 more than the standard Corsa VXR), you’ll have to pay for it. No official info on the performance figures, but we don’t think there’ll be any major improvements compared to the ‘regular’ Corsa VXR’s (0-60 in 6.8 seconds and 140 mph top speed).
