I was invited to VX HQ to view the new Astra GTC Concept car, unfortunately I done the epic rush out of the door and left my camera at home, so apologies for the poor quality pics.











The colour is very nice and the pictures do not do it any justice.

Wow - I like that. I thought those brake disks were tiny until you compare it to the size of the tyre!

I too think the multi piston brakes will stay, this would continue the trend started with the Insignia VXR.

The wheels will become smaller for sure, not sure the seat fabric will stay either. Rest of car looks production ready.

I think it looks really fresh. A winner in the style stakes.

Brembos are staying, the seat fabric will be alcantra but without the scripture.
