Description
Stunning Vauxhall Astra VXR in 'Flame Red' with Recaro leather interior. Unbelievably low mileage supported by service stamps and MOT history. The first owner purchased the car back in December 2005 and kept it until September 2020! It then changed hands again in April 2021 to the current registered keeper who had intended on keeping it garaged as an appreciating modern classic but decided to part exchange it due to lack of garage space, meaning the car has only had 3 owners from new (all previous logbooks present with the history including the original 'blue' V5). Within the documentation for the car is some of the original tax discs, as well as multiple receipts from 2019 when the car appears to have undergone some recommissioning work by 'Smith Classic and Performance Cars' (details on their website from when they sold the car in 2020), including Continental tyres fitted in February 2019 and a service with new battery with timing belt replacement in July 2019 (both visits to Perrys of Broadstairs Vauxhall main dealer). The car is in remarkable condition, there is a receipt present from August 2019 for a professional detail including steam cleansing the undercarriage and arches. The interior and under the bonnet is a real time-warp and fantastic to see that original examples like this still exist.
