The engineers have also managed to fit the cars with Vauxhall&#8217;s fuel-saving Start\/Stop technology.<\/p>\n<p>Each of the BiTurbo versions come equipped with a range of features including 18-inch alloy wheels, an exterior styling pack, twin rear exhausts and alloy sports pedals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Car leasing customers find it easier than most drivers to change their vehicles at regular intervals to take advantage of the latest developments in the motoring industry.
