Vauxhall Monaro Overview
The Vauxhall Monaro is classed as a 'muscle car' which was produced by the British automobile manufacturing company Vauxhall Motors. This car only had a short production life, from 2004 to 2006. The Vauxhall version of this car was taken from the Australian Holden Monaro. Holden is the sister company of Vauxhall, and this car was like no other Vauxhall on the market, giving the company a new image. These cars have high performance V8 engines but have really high running costs and the handling is pretty poor. They do have great safety features, are well equipped and are great fun to drive. They don't hold their resale value very well. Does this sound like your experience of this car?
Vauxhall Monaro History
The Vauxhall Monaro was introduced in 2004 and was totally different than any other Vauxhall before it. As this was basically a rebadged version of the Australian Holden Monaro, with some alterations, they were very powerful sports cars. This car won the Top Gear best muscle car award and there was a more powerful 6.0L version introduced, the VXR. The new torqued up version was capable of reaching 0-60mph in 4.8 seconds. The Morano was discontinued in 2007 and was replaced with the Vauxhall VXR8.
