18-05-11, 00:28 GMT+10#81 Went south today what a joke about 3 vls there. One had a pair of I think series 1 berlina red seats in it. They looked fairly good.
Also in the holding yard they had a fairly tidy blue exec about to come out in the next few days. Might be worth a sus

21-05-11, 14:19 GMT+10#82 just got back from south yard. that blue vl must have come out this morning. has a brand new head on it, and the engine was all still pretty much together and hoses looked all new, i grabbed a few clamps etc. but deff worth it for someone needing a head. had 146*** on the clock as well i think?
apart from that there was **** all down there.

Had a quick look. I saw the sunnies holder had been ripped out. looked like that may have been painted to match. Dash pad and glove box etc looked fairly mint. Drivers seat had a small rip from memory. Rest looked ok,

17-03-12, 16:49 GMT+10#92 i went for a look at lonsdale today there is a vl with blue S1 calais front and rear seats the passenger and rear have 1 ciggie burn on each but the drivers seat was in good nic no holes or tears but could do with a clean. and in another vl a blue centre console hi rise with lid. i picked up a polished rocker cover for 18 bucks im pretty stoked with, that same vl had a polished and smoothed N/A plenum but i couldn't really be bothered with it.
