are they allowd to be driven although its a v8? i mean vts are pritty heavy cars...
or was he illegally driving it?:S
cause i have a vt ss, and im sellin it off to buy a vt s LOL
is it possible to drive the vt ss on your ps?:S
Read his question again you f*cken retard. He asked WHEN not WHERE.
God damn n00bs. If you got your Victorian Ps after 01/07/07, you cannot drive a V8, turbo, or high performance 6.

so no mater what
i cant touch the vt ss 'legally'?
Even if you got your licence before 01/07/07, if the copper who pull's you over says in his opinion that the power to weight / capacity to weight isn't aloud for P plates, then thats it - you could tell them why it isn't till your blue in the face, unless you want to fight it in court you pretty much gotta take it...
u can have a vt ss 5litre on ur ps!!! back when iw as at high school a kid did.. had no problems.. cops used to pull him over and so fourth!!!
cos the power to weight with just a 5 litre is different compared to a 5.7 litre!
im p's had my vt ss 5.7 for a few months now but i got my licence ages ago this is my last year never had probs even when i talked to cops once my mate got pulled ova in his 5.7 vt calais they said i was allowed to drive up to a clubby lol which isnt true but anyway no probs here my bro got his ps in march 2008 drives his vt ss 5.0L around no probs aswell i guess its just up to the cop if they wanna be idiots to you or let u enjoy urself as long as u arent doing anything stupid
btw what color was the vt u saw the p plater with :P could of been me and around where
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
haha i do, but now they crackin down over here as well and just brought in the same laws yous have over east. Got sent a set of green/red p plates today haha
lol those laws would suck so bad. glad they havent come to w.a 'yet'. I drive my dads vz ss round would suck if I wasnt allowed... it flys. extractors, cai, map tuned.
has there been ne word about laws like that coming through?
If you got your licence after 1/7/07 you cannot drive any vt ss's series 1 5.0L V8 and SC6 or series 2 5.7L V8 as previously stated. If you got your licence before the 1/7/07 you can drive a vt ss but only if it is a SC6 or a 5.0L V8. Even if you got your P's before the 1/7/07 you cannot drive any 5.7L V8's and any cop who tells you otherwise is wrong.
And Dazza102 you can drive any 5.0L V8's if you got your P's prior to the 1/7/07. I got done for it and followed it up, all I had to do was write a letter to Snr Sergeant Richie with all the facts and the fine was immediately revoked.

No mate, its based upon power to weight and capacity to weight. If the car you drive has more than 125 flywheel kilowatts per tonne, you can't drive it. If your car has more than 3.5L per tonne, you can't drive it.
VLT (stock) = 125Kw/tonne exactly, less than 3.5L/tonne
VN V8 (stock) = over

Yes mate...I know those facts, that's how I got off...
...and also in my experiences VN's never get hassled over power to weight...
