Jeez you must have been bored! The old VLs suffer quite badly from cancer, so that would've claimed a few, and seeing as they're not the strongest of cars, it would be really easy to write one off in an accident. Anyways, there were 151,801 VLs built, and who knows how many made it to NZ, but looks like you still have a few number plates to go!
A certain someone that loves yellow bt1s
another thought is how many have we (as in us CT boys) wrecked for parts I've done 3 I know Dave has done a sh1tload

In Australia......Local Production isnt counted. we built VL's until 1989, alongside the VN, and well into the VN's production run.
Hmmm, a BT1 lover, I wonder who that could be...
I didn't realise that build number didn't include NZ built cars, I just found it in one of my myriad Commodore bibles! It would be interesting to know how many VLs were left on NZ roads though.

Yeah see that I guess alot of wagons were used as trade vehicles and had a hard life but good for me the less the better
