found the proper part of site where you spec up, not full leather as standard.
Steve its between a candy white leon cupra or arden blue VXR with 90% of the options.
cupra doesnt have much in the way of options, guess they save the cool stuff for audi.

Go into the actual Astra section and select the model as VXR, not going into the VXR section and selecting Astra - if that makes sense? 
Options off the top of my head:
Pearl/metallic Paint,
19" Wheels,
AFL's
Leather
Cruise Control
Climate Control
Sat Nav
Sight & Light pack
Folding Mirrors,
IDS (suspension)
Rear Parking Sensors
... I'm all out

Out of interest, how are you paying for it/how long are you planning to keep it. If it's company funded it makes no odds, but you can get some hefty discounts off the VXR, but then they only offset the hit you take when you get rid of it if you plan to do so in the near future...

Keyless entry was another option.
Now comes as standard though, along with piano black interior. Also the 19" wheels option is now 2 tone - anthracite and silver

Through my company on contract hire, will only have it for 2 years.
Was specing up an S3 the other day but going to be to much although the options and interior styling you can do to that are immense, there are FUCK ALL options on the Leon 
I dont like the standard cupra alloys and id be stuck with them, really think they are god awful. prefer the looks of the astra, tricky one. I would test drive them both but i know it will be a 40mph poodle around the ring road not the test id like to do so it would be meangingless.

Picked up my Astra VXR in Arden Blue yesterday. Got the new Anthracite 19's and keyless entry is now standard. The Corsa VXR was a great car but this Im loving even more

Daz do you have a servicing schedule, or estimated costs over the 2 years, what are the intervals etc? thanks.
corsanut id love a golf, i speced up an R32 and it came in at silly monthly payments. A decent spec'd GTi isnt much better either, overpriced for what it is imho.
