Your best bet would be to buy a donor car... There was a perfect example on here a few days ago...genuine turbo car, had been in a smash... asking 4200... If you bought something like that, you could transplant everything into your car

hey man, i reckon you could get 4k for that car because it looks in really good condition. is it resprayed or just original paint? i paid 4.5 for a vl similar to yours a couple of years ago, only had 17" wheels but was resprayed in maroon and looked really nice. if it hasn't got new paint tho then you'd be happy with about 3.5-4. nice car, u should keep it.

I'm his brother. The top half was resprayed before he got it, which was maybe 6months ago now. I don't know if he wants to sell it or what, he keeps changing his mind. I think he'd be happy to keep it and save for a while to get a turbo engine, gearbox and diff but yeah, just keeps changing his mind. Jason.

why do people lower the rear of the car more than the front? man, i rekon its worth 2.5-3 grand.... we got a VL Berlina Wagon, in hothouse green, just been sprayed, with 11 months rego and rwc for 3500 and no1 wants it!

sell it without the wheels as i said before. you will lose maybe 500 bucks on the price.. but u'l have an $1800 set of wheels to put on whatever you buy next.. I reckon 4 grand roadworthy with the mags off johns calais and then keep/sell the jetz seperately. Dont sell it before i sell mine though because if someones gonna pay good money for a vl then i want them to buy mine haha.
