context_page_description: Vauxhall Motors Limited is a British Automobile manufacturer, subsidiary of French car manufacturer Groupe PSA and based in Chalton, Bedfordshire, England.
  Vauxhall's vehicle lineup is identical to that of Opel, but the Vauxhall brand is exclusively used in the UK. Vauxhall is one of the oldest established vehicle manufacturers and distribution companies in the United Kingdom.
  Vauxhall sells passenger cars and light commercial vehicles under the Vauxhall marque, and formerly sold vans, buses, and trucks under the Bedford Vehicles brand. Vauxhall has been the second-largest selling car brand in the UK for more than two decades.
  Vauxhall was founded by Alexander Wilson in 1857 as a pump and marine engine manufacturer. It was bought in 1863 by Andrew Betts Brown, who began producing travelling cranes; he named the company Vauxhall Iron Works. It began manufacturing cars in 1903. It was acquired by American automaker General Motors in 1925. Bedford Vehicles was established as a subsidiary of Vauxhall in 1930 to manufacture commercial vehicles.
  It was a luxury car brand until it was bought by General Motors who thereafter built mid-market offerings.
