looks nice maroon-jet, looks a bit like mine with same type of rims and paint, is yours cardinal red 2F020? the best vl colour imo. looks real low in the first pic have you thought about removing the pinstripe though? will look a lot cleaner without it.

hey dimples those rims you got or had on that white vl of yours. does anyone know wot they are? i love em might buy a set if anyoe can identify??? and shred thats one noice looking black vl. bugger it got done by hail my vl has a few small dints from people banging stuff against the side of my car. but when she gets resprayed in alpine white they will be removed. friend of mine had a black over silver vk calais and he lent it to his mate and it got rolled a couple of times and through a couple of fence posts big solid strainer posts very sad sight it was a v8 and zhaust had the perfect note. and all the guy could say was im sorry???? ha ha ha he got a few beatings mind you. cheers Paul Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
