Vauxhall Astra GTC VXR 2012-2015 MPG & running costs

Vauxhall claims that the GTC VXR is cheaper than its main rivals on the used market. Certainly, it is seemingly well equipped. The Volkswagen Scirocco R is more expensive, though holds its value better.

In our hands, the VXR returned a steady 26.5mpg overall, which is acceptable. On a touring run, we’d expect you to see 33mpg easily.
