Not a Vauxhall
Re-badge it an Opel and it gets cooler
Lot of good stuff for the money though, as has already been said

I wouldn't do that if I where you. Opel is by far the most boring car manufacturer of the last century. What is Vauxhall anyway? Did they make cars of themselfs one day?

vauxhall and opel are both part of general motors ,
when opel made the kadett vauxhall rebadged it as the astra etc etc .
same cars different branding,
by the way there will be no graphics going on this car lol

We used to have an Opel Kadett hatchback - one of the pre GM ones from 1974 IIRC - my wife moved to England in it from Germany many moons back. It was BRIGHT green with orange wings on both sides where she had an argument with some ice.
Great little car and had some fantastic times with it.

this shape
but ( unfortunately ) this colour

What? Tarnish the Volvo brand by putting it on a Vauxhall?

Instead of photoshoppin a grille on to a calibra get a C70! and the opel badge is cooler than vauxhalls even if they are the same cars underneath

Can't argue with that really. Very nice, although I'd maybe swap the wheels. Other than that...spot on.
cheers
