Vauxhall Astra Coupé

The Vauxhall Astra Coupé is a BTC Touring car built by Triple 8 Race Engineering ahead of the 2001 British Touring Car Championship for the works Vauxhall team. The Astra Coupé is one of the most dominant cars in BTCC history - winning 20 out of 24 races in its debut season and taking a clean sweep of the Driver, Manufacturer and Team championships in the hands of Jason Plato, Yvan Muller and James Thompson.
