Another VL lost it's life over the weekend. Dumped at the Kotara end of the Charlestown bypass and burnt out. White, no idea what luxury level etc as it was completely ruined from the windscreen area back.

vlturrbo. Vy 1 tonner, 408 lsx single turbo. 450 odd rwkw

Who crashed their VLC into a tree on Thursday in Waratah? CT sticker on rear window, poor bloke, thing looked neat.

Anyone want some parts? I'm moving soon and have some crap left over from my VL that I don't want. I'll do a for sale ad later but it's pickup and if anyone local wants it they can have first crack. VL-VS K-frame, asking $20 for it. Front control arms, rear upper control arms, front sway bar, Z bars. Busted power steering rack (get a discount on a replacement maybe) - take it, I just want it gone. Front bar reo with half a bumper still fitted. Bolts that hold the bar on are corroded and I never got around to getting them all off. Reo itself is in good condition. 5L starter motor, brand new think it's a gear reduction model, never got around to fitting it. I'll sell it for $50, comes with new bolts. VN V6 auto gearbox. Unknown condition, has a torque converter fitted. Just want it gone.

What color was it? I remember seeing a neat/clean blue VLBT at raymond terrace with a CT sticker in the rear window.

I heard about that VL, guy I work with drove past it not too long after it happened. He said the driver did a good job of f@$king the car. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

yeah will cost him 4500 roughly to fix. left front rail is bent.

newy is dead.....

So what's everyone been up to? Who still has their VL? I see the odd one around but they aren't as common as a few years back, plus I've moved and don't go into Newy much anymore. I'd love another but it's not going to happen anytime soon. Got a mortgage now and getting married in March so the funding just isn't there. Sold the VZ and took a lease out on a Cruze 1.6T which is a bit of fun to drive and will do for the time being. Was considering a VF when the lese was up but now there won't be any new ones by that time so I'll either look second hand, go something small and cheap, or look into my 4th VL if there are any decent ones left at good prices. I'll be in my 40's then (fark) so will be mid life crisis time, lol.

You still living down the road from me? You should get a VL, be good to know someone in the area with one. Have you seen that Blue berlina thats always parked on the street down the road from you?
