There were two different blues that came up, both from November 1987 on Vacationers that I'd never seen on any other VL. The Tuxedo and Prospect cars were also made in November 1987. Must have been the month for weird colours. I know everyone says they'd love a Mulberry, Silverslate, Black or Everglade car but I found Mink and Corniche to be even rarer.

whats the V5W mean on the absinth yellow (BT1) tag ? ive seen the FE2 symbol there many of time but never that russ or VLTWhite1 maybe you guys can confirm?

Yes, V5W is the country pack suspension.

Not 100% sure as it looked more brown in person, but is this faded mulberry? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

2B068 Dorwood Blue Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Love the blood orange look of this colour. First and only one I've seen like it. Thanks to Luke (VLlover) for the pics... 1E023 Sebring (Bob Jane) Orange Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Thanks to Luke (VLlover) for the pics... 1E023 Sebring (Bob Jane) Orange Well, for a model that didn't run for so long, there were plenty of colours! When you mention Bob Jane, was this a colour for him/special order?? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Basically if you owned a company (Telstra, Ramset etc) you could order a fleet of cars for your company from the factory in your choice of colour (This depended on how many cars you wanted, basically buying company cars in bulk). So for example Bob Jane would have said to Holden 'I want, say 200 VL sedans in said colour to use as Bob Jane T-Mart company cars' and Holden would have produced them. This saved buying a pile of cars and getting them sprayed/decal'd later which would in the end cost more. I don't think many (if any) company's do this anymore, most seem to just have bog-stock 'fridge' white cars.

^^ I've been reading about VLs for 15 years and I never knew that before...cool info.

If anyone can find some pics on this site of my old VLT 'RB-3747' you can use that under the Venetian Red paint code.
