Vauxhall is ready to build a stripped out version of the Astra VXR, to rival the new Renault Megane R26.R.
Sources say Vauxhall’s engineering team are considering using lightweight materials like polycarbonate windows, losing the rear seats and binning sound deadening materials in order to create a faster, more focused hatch.
However if such a version did make production, like the Renault, it would be a special limited edition rather than a full-scale production model.
