The Vauxhall Victor wasn’t only going to whup all the domestic competition, but cars from rival Ford as well. It was produced in house by British stylists and British engineers and built in Luton. But after 5 generations the Victor name was dead and future cars were being styled and engineered in Germany. What happened? Thanks to http://vauxpedia.net/ for such amazing details behind this car. Too many stories to mention, so if you want to know more, check out their website.
