I was talking to a mate yesterday and he mentioned seeing a light blue VLC at the Easternats the last year that the event was held at Sandown. I remember it as well, light blue VL Calais (custom paint), Astroid silver bars, custom cream interior, bonnet gauges, nitrous system, Vic plates VL4SHW. I was wondering if anyone know's where it is now? I've only ever seen it twice, once at the E'nats and once a few months after that near Airport Station in Laverton. I don't have any photo's sorry.

I did try Google for a photo after I posted this. Here's a photo of it at the 'Nats taken from Photobucket. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Oh right, thanks bud. Good to hear that it hadn't disappeared on account of anything bad happening to it. It's a beautiful car.

I've pretty much lost my initial respect for it, gauges on an N/A I can cope with but tubs and a 'fake' nitrous system (the tank is the centrepiece of the interior) is a step too far in the wrong direction. Thread may as well be closed.
