Hello all, I am new to this site and am struggling to get the grip of where to find things etc it took 30 mins to work out how to make a new thready Anyway im from Canberra and am looking at buying a fairly straight Vl and then work from there but seeing that im fairly useless with cars besides changing tyres the best thing i can do is crash them into lightpoles etc Just wanted to see whether people thought this car sounds resonable or would i be better going to Sydney to look. sorry there is no photo Details: -December 86 VL SL manual -Repainted Holden Artic Blue -17inch R8 replicas -lowered all round, with adjustable camber in the front -Genie extractors and exhaust -Pod filter -Steering Wheel -CD Stereo -Complete new front brakes setup -No rust in boot -Never had a mechanical problem with this car, very reliable, serviced every 5000km oil and filter - will be missed -6months rego- he is asking $2800 Any imput would be apprciated. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

sounds like a good car for the money, but ur always gonna be better off lookin at it and makin ur own decision bout the condition of the car.. jus my 2c Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Cheers Duff man, I just talked to him again and he buckled a rim and his steering arm thingy but has replaced knocked it down to $1700 which is alot so im abit weary but taking a mechanic mate over tonight to give it a good going over. Will let ya know how it goes. Thanks again

Since he dropped so much of you wonder what else is wrong man.. becarful an hava look!!!!

is it a local car man ?

Quik - thanks mate my car mechanic mate went over it, he reckons it is good, fairly straight and good for the money. PLY-BOI - Yeah it's local he lives in Aranda/RedHill and his names Tom. Ok car bought goes fair good, my mate went over it and for the money its the best we had seen. there are a few problems like the indicator stalk is busted and the heater dosen't work and i need to buy a new R8 replica if they still make them cause he buckled a wheel. I will try work out how to get a photo on today or tomorrow

the user is on here under the name chapsvl i know as i gave him that sunglass's holder in the dash i may have some pics of it i'll have a quick look hope u enjoy the vl tom ( not the old owner lol ) -edit heres the pics this were taken b4 it was lowered more hope the paint is still as good as it used to be add me to msn if u like its on my profile Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

tidy

very clean..

Cheers Ply Boi Thats my car she looks a little bit shinier there but it's still fairly sweet. I need to get a new R8 replica mag, do you know a place? or is it better off to go to Quik fit or something like that. Besides that im stoked with the car, still taking it easy though trying to get used to it.

Duff - i heard VL's a known for rust but she seems ok except for some surface rust here and there MRDFCT - im fairly sure i clicked on new post underneath some other post or something im sure that helps loads Ply Boi - to Bob's i go hope they don't cost truck loads and i also hope the buckled wheel is the reason my steering wheel has a fit at high speeds Time will tell
