Gday boys and girls. Well a couple of weeks ago my brother was driving my car in the rain and slid out into a tree. It hit the rear of the car. I was sitting closest to where the tree hit in the rear passenger side however i was not majorly injured just got a minor concussion and a sore shoulder, the main thing is that no one got hurt. Any way the car has been declared a write off by my insurance company. This is what it looked like before the crash: This is after: Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Gday boys. Well i am happy to announce that i have bought another vl. I got it off my brother for $2000 with 6 months rego and a rwc. It is a full calais mockup with pace maker extractors, 2.5 into 3 inch exhaust, lowered on super lows at the front, ultras at the rear, alarm, immobiliser and central locking and i have put my 18 inch chromies on it. What do you guys think?? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
