Just thought id share something with you.I recently aquired this ultra rare dealership vx220 decor.
The main one is huge at 180cm(71 inches) long and 60cm tall. It is made of flexible rubbery foam board.
The other is smaller at only 60cmx60cm,but it is a lovely rear wheel shot!Anyone own this car?
Just thought id share this privelage with fellow vx220 owners!,they should look nice above the vx220 in the garage!( the bottle in the photo is the 2ltr kind just to show some size perspective! oh and like vauxhall red paint,its gone slightly pink in the large photo!who else owns one?enjoy!

Does anyone have one of the vx220 books that were made about the building of the car? They are really wonderful with a proper hardback sleeve and vauxhall badge embossed on it. I shall try and dig mine out and put some pics up.

They were given out free to those that bought a new car when it was launched. I've got one I picked up from bay about 6 years sgo. They come up for sale periodically.

I have a few rare vx memorabilia (no photographs of them though). I have the optional extras offered upon purchase of a new vx of, the sliver/chromed logoed credit card holder, the vx rayban sunglasses and the vx sheepskin jacket (among many other things). ..icey

..not any more. I gave mine away to someone that loved the vx but was too young to have one, they were building a shrine to the vx in their bedroom, so i donated my book (the look on their face was worth a million pounds)
