g'day, names Chris, i don't own a VL anymore but have owned two previously: one VL V8 Formula ( rego VEE EL, had Scheels F & R, MOMO Stars, calais side skirts, calais interior trim on seats & calais door trims, written off by my bro about 6 years ago now ) the other was a Dark red VL Berlina NA 6cyl ( also had VEE EL rego, lowered, MOMO Stars ). love the VL shape and hopefully one day will own another so i can use the VEE EL plates ( unless i sell them )
our driveway has a few different cars which consist of an FG Falcon ( company car ), '97 WRX Hatch ( ITGRIPS ) and the most important, an HDT VK SS in Asteroid Silver ( VEE KA, hence my login ). bought the SS after the Formula got written off so have had it now since 2003. it's basically std but has had some minor engine work done and puts out 230rwhp. over the years its had a respray, rebuilt diff, rebuilt g/box, rebuilt engine & retrimmed interior.
won't post much cause i prefer to just read, learn and see what's happening
see ya's round
cheers
chris

You should get into another one man - especially given how the other one ended up.

yeah would like to, maybe one day. we'd need to sell a couple of cars first though!! and i dont think Rinai would like driving a modded VL everyday, especially with personal plates!! she wouldn't like the attention!! haha!

sweet cheers, will see how we go a bit closer to the date. we actually go to Bunbury every couple of weeks ( not in the VK though ) cause the G/f is from there and her folks are still there!
