Included in the carsales ad description for a VL BT1 is the term "Gold D-(Detective Car) " I assume he's referring to the paint code on the plate in the pic Sorry but that does not mean it was a 'detectives' VL Turbo BT1

some also were RTA / TELECOM etc etc cars , hence the government pack

lol this car lives across the road from me

When i read dulux i think someone has gone down to mitre 10 and just selected a tub of outdoor paint and thought it was pretty spot on because the car will be outdoor's :P

its a nice car , i love that colour, too bad its been resprayed and had badges removed ... not worth 9 k IMO non the less D does not mean detectives car lol

aus880 did you buy this bt1? http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=180708

one for the memory books ... "see mate its still got the skinny detective light on the passengers drive pillar from when the coppers had it " ..... what a joke lol mind u it was just a 20 buck super cheap auto light lol when it comes to bt1's it always bellonged to this commisioner/detective/officers car ...... standard story line when buying one lol
