Vauxhall has announced the arrival of a special edition Corsa VXR Blue. It is aimed at the Citroen DS3 Racing and MINI Cooper Works and features special paint and a colour-coded interior.
The body is finished in Arden Blue metallic paint while lowered suspension, 18-inch alloy wheels and tinted windows also help identify the special model. Inside there are Recaro seats, blue air vent surrounds and plenty of blue stitching.
Power comes from the same 189bhp, 1.6-litre turbocharged engine as in the standard VXR. Vauxhall claims a 0-60mph time of 6.8 seconds and a top speed of 140mph. The Blue Edition shares the 'Eagle-Eye' headlamps with the rest of the revised Corsa range and deep-set front fog lamps with other Corsa VXRs.
The Corsa VXR Blue is priced at £19,425 and is available to order now with the first cars to be delivered in February.
