Hi all, Just spotted this for sale add on ebay. The car looks very clean and well preserved. Just wanted to gather your thoughts on whether its over priced ? or if it holds no serious value to some of you and why? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/COMMODORE-VL-...QQcmdZViewItem (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&campid=5335860158&toolid=10001&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com.au%2FCOMMODORE-VL-SL-BT1-TURBO-ORIGINAL-EX-POLICE-IN-VGC_W0QQitemZ120209448266QQihZ002QQcategoryZ102240QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) Personally i own a bt1 almost identical to this, and really value it high especially because its been well preserved and taken car of (2nd owner). Thats my opinion on the overall value of "clean og bt1's" , please share your thoughts....

I guess thats an issue with these cars, how do we know if theyv been molested or not (considering your after a genuine clean one), because as we can see its very easy to bring them back to original looking state. I am a little turned off, but glad to see the car in its orginal and clean state.
