How to remove the crankshaft Pulley on a Vauxhall Vectra?

Question:
The problem here is that the four bolts that hold it have a peculiar head. A 8mm ring spanner approxiamately fits it but not accurately enough.
Does anyone know what kind of head it is and where one gets the spanner to fit it.

Answers:

the heads you are talking about are called torxe drives, vauxhalls use a lot of these, if you do a lot of work on your own car it will be worth buying a good set, use the one that fits perfectly because if you round then of it creates bigger problems.
