Hi everyone just thought I'd share my new Vl Berlina I picked up last week! Genuine one owner Vl, purchased from an elderly mans daughter, who unfortunately passed away. Car has 184,000 kms on it and is close to mint condition bar a few tiny dints on some doors. Vehicle was produced on 28th aug 1987 which is 11 days younger than the Calais. Plans are to convert to turbo and have a quick street/sleeper. Regards Shane

i scored one a couple months ago with 25000kms a few dents though as the original owner was 86 years old.

where on earth to you find these cars!!??? I was so jealous of that calais you bought that i had to delete the photos of it off my computer because i got sick of having to look at them every time i went through my vl album haha

I've found a couple of sites with some good original examples. And i just picked up a one owner 87 vl wagon with a genuine 68,000 k's on it thats just as it left the assembly line. only an executive though but i've got plans for it. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I would need another shed first then would need another daily. it's hard enough paying two rego's as it is.. And it's beige so i want to respray it another factory colour then remove the motor and replace with a rb30det or just put a 25 head on the original block. not sure whats the best way to go about it but thats whats happening before the years end. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Love it, good to see a nice n tidy berlina. Good colour too.
